I wouldn't say he's crazy about it. The guy finds the least abrasive, softest way possible to politely ask people not to pirate. For how good Pathoma is, he deserves every penny. I paid $99 for 2 years. Compare that with resources like Sketchy, Firecracker, UWorld and there's really no better bang for your buck.
That said, I inadvertently received the Pathoma videos from a friend and used them when I didn't have an internet connection. I still bought a subscription though to give him what he deserves. OP, I am sure you can find someone in your class who has the videos. The subscription is still work it because the book is gold.
