    I’d say we’re at an impasse, but if I don’t buy premium and I don’t watch ads in their content, they’re not getting paid.

    If they paid a pittance to keep their storage and it pushed their quality up and push the price of premium down more people would watch and they’d make a hell of a lot more money.

        I only started blocking the ads when yt started allowing 2 back to back 15 second advertisements and creators started putting in mid rolls.

        This crap they’re pulling is downward spiral. They can’t get 20% more yoy by squeezing people to pay Netflix prices for crap. And most of the creators need patrion to even survive.

        I truly hoped something like Odyssey could survive and we could just dht our likes. But it just becomes a sesspool.
