    Then stop using it 🤷‍♂️ That’s a personal value. I find yt+music for the family for$22 a steal.

    The entitlement of you all is crazy.

        Lololol you are directly stealing from creators. There isn’t even some thin connection. They get paid on ad views and subscriptions. You are straight up taking money from creatives.

          I’m under no obligation to watch advertisements. They can try to advertise to me if they want, I can avoid it however I want. Did you ever grow up with linear TV? Did you just eventually piss yourself because it would have been unfair to the commercial broadcast company to not pay attention to the ads? You mook.

              You are under an obligation to maximize your shareholder value as a consumer, anything against that violates the prime directive and will send bots from the matrix to simp for it. Thanks for the reminder, I don’t have to watch anything. What a revelation of information I did not know before this.

          Content creators don’t make as much from ads as you think. Apparently selling merch and sponsorships is where most comes from.

      With the amount of telemetry and trackable data they’ve collected and potentially sold, and the quality of both the service and the content being in a constant decline, I consider my malware-free access to the service to be paid for life.

      Shit, considering the way they handled recent controversies, I see it as a moral obligation to hit them in the wallet.

      I remember ages ago when you could just have youtube background play on android. Then they removed it. And now you have to pay for it.

      I’m not giving them my money, especially when you consider how much data they harvest from you to sell it on.

      I pay for spotify, whilst they do use trackers and sell your data. I get a metric ton more use out of it. Youtube to me, is just background noise.
