Somehow paying for Netflix is fine but god forbid I want to watch a 10 hour loop of the DS9 intro without ads.

    It includes youtube music. And creators you watch get more money than if you watched using the ad supported version.

      • You also get to play video with a screen off on mobile

      • You also get to download for offline viewing

      • You also support the creators of the videos, not just google.

      • AND FFS YOU DONT GET ADS.

      Using adblock isnt some innate human right. They are well within their rights to block adblock.

      You get almost the whole worlds information for free in video form. You can be entertained or use it as a teaching tool. It is the best place at this point for product demos and reviews. It is a crazy wealth of information and infrastructure that everyone takes advantage of and somehow just expect to be free. If Google cancells it because it is not profitable, i would bet the efficiency of the entire human race takes a significant nose dive. It also probably runs one of the highest sets of data storage and encoding on the planet.
