First, reselling volume license is not illegal, but many sites selling volume licenses are selling illegally obtained keys. So you might be paying for piracy, specially if you are buying it from ebay or cragslist type sites.
Usually i buy them on G2A or Kinguin or other site. No idea if they are 100% legal. All I can say is that I have never had any problems with activations. I once had to buy a new key when upgrading the motherboard, but I suspect that this is inherent to OEM licenses.
Damn......... well..... not sure what to say to that.......
It’s OK if you disagree with me. I can’t force you to be right!

Nowadays, I cant be bothered. I have more money than time so I'd rather pay a few hundred dollars than muck around for an hour.
More like "pay a hundred dollars thenthan get hacked/backdoored and be made into part of their bot-net"

I only "warez" to test out. If i like it, I will support it and buy it. In the past, long time ago, feeling old now, you could play demos, they dont really do that anymore.

Hey, i got nothing against that! As long as you are supporting the creators of what you like, you are doing more good then the people who are not buying it at all!
Btw, i am guessing you are talking about games like "Cities Skyline II", "Cyberpunk 2077" etc which came out super broken, not worth the full price on release...

Are you trying to say that valid licenses contains backdoors?
