Vega’s audience was confused. This isn't angry! the comments read. This is just weird!
The most obvious driver. A family of four going to the cinema or renting a movie on Amazon Prime for $3.99 can feel expensive. The promise of "free" is intoxicating, especially for content perceived as "simple" or "just a kids' movie."

You aren't getting the real movie. The file for is often a heavily compressed rip. The vibrant colors of Bird Island will look washed out. The crisp 5.1 surround sound mix of songs like “Friends” by Blake Shelton will be reduced to tinny mono audio. For an animated film where visual comedy is paramount, piracy destroys the experience. You miss the subtle expressions on Red’s eyebrows or the slick physics of Chuck’s hyper-speed.
