I mean, PIA is like 40 bucks for an entire year. You're not gonna find any prominent streaming service, pro-grade subscription software, or pro-grade software license that's as cheap as that.
If the goal is to access all desired software and media safely while paying as little as possible, it's a great choice.
I don't think a play on the saying 'what doesn't kill me makes me stronger' is a retro music reference.
