Doesn't matter. We don't get that choice. Abide by the law or be illegal, it's simple. If you opt to be illegal, I would suggest that entertainment media may not be the best line in the sand to draw. It's not like stealing food to not starve to death. Just becuase you're bored and feel entitled to be entertained does not mean that someone elsewhere should have to give up possible profit to do so.

To be clear, I've got no issues sailing the black season, like many of you, but I won't be pretending I didn't know, if I get caught. I recognize what's legal and not. It's part of being in a society.

I recognize what’s legal and not. It’s part of being in a society.

As is recognizing what's ethical and not, is it not?

Yes but that is beside the point of this comment.
