Because the legal options are garbage.

The pirates provide a better service with more content for cheaper than the legal options; and pirating yourself takes effort as well as cost (hardware, trackers, usenet, etc).

Some people are happy to just pay for decent service; others like to learn about the process, then setup and run their own servers.

To each their own.
