I know it's morally dubious, but I'm completely back in pirateland because of all the changes/price hikes/partitioning in the streaming space. My interests make it so I only watch 1-2 shows per platform so I'd be approaching ~100$/month.

And even if I was swimming in money, it's often easier to just download the shows I want and watch them on Plex/Jellyfin than trying to navigate the (often ad-riddled) interfaces of the various platforms and finding where the content I want is.

One example is Rick and Morty, it's made by Adult Swim, but they don't have a streaming service in Canada. It seems to be on Primevideo but under a different system than their regular content. The other way to watch it is to buy it from my cable provider (I don't have cable). So to watch a 20-minutes animated show I'd have to take a +40$ subscription.

Why not just buy the Rick and morty episodes or seasons, for example, on iTunes/appletv?

Then what? If your disk is full and apple removes it from their collection you can't download it anymore.

It just doesn't make any sense.. Just sell me an NFT and use that to access ANY quality or media of that publication. Then I can also just resell my NFT, just like we would with videos, dvd, and games
