When you are unable to obtain a "free" copy of something, do y'all just give in and pay for the thing? Or just give up on having the thing altogether?

    If it’s a physical object, I do what i need to do. But I’ve developed the policy that I don’t pay real money for unreal things. And anything I cannot experience with all five senses is unreal.

      I’m intrigued. Do you mean that you may experience it with five senses or that you must experience it with five senses?

      Do you pay for clothes and eat them when they wear out? Do you taste and listen to household cleaners? Are silent things invisible to you, or do you use a form of echolocation?

        I would normally say ‘may’, as in ‘must be able to’, especially since the classical senses are a little wonky anyway.

      Um… Wikipedia isn’t real? So what have people been donating to? Thin air?

        To me, yes. I would be willing to buy a copy of Britannica or another printed encyclopedia.
