It’s a lot less convenient and definitely past the gray line, but I pay for Spotify premium (optional), but pretty much never actually listen to music via Spotify.

You’re being punished for bad behaviour. Paying for streaming services leads to unskippable ads. If you just torrented, you wouldn’t have to see ads anymore. In other words, doing the right thing comes with moral desserts in this case.
An alternative for torrenting (if you’re willing to pay) is Stremio+Debrid-Link, which works like a streaming service but without any ads nor geo-locked content. Debrid-link is 3€ per month (if you buy 6 months), which is probably cheaper than paying for a VPN (e.g. Mullvad) for torrenting.
Stremio has apps for W*ndows, Linux, MacOS, Android, iOS, AndroidTV, SamsungTV, LG TV, Sony TV, Philips TV (even Meta Quest) and also you can use it in a web browser without an app (if any of your devices aren’t supported).
The only downside is that sometimes movies/shows take some time before they’re available.

Anything’s skipable if you try hard enough
Just a lot easier on a computer than TV. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/sponsorblock/

I was willing to pay before all these companies decided to treat their customers like shit.
Stremio isn’t a company or a streaming service. It streams torrents.
