Are there pirated contents that you very like and eventually give money to the creator, and where do you find the creators?

Sure. I buy tickets to their concerts, have bought CDs, movies, buy their game in the next Steam sale or on Humblebundle, rarely Patreon or support indie things on Ko-fi or whatever. I buy a novel if I enjoyed the first chapter(s) and want it on paper. Or go to the library. I just can't afford all the music and Spotify isn't paying the artists properly either. And I don't want a DVD collection, so for TV series they don't get money from me. Except for what the one streaming service I pay for forwards to them.
