I know your comment is tongue-in-cheek but I happily pay for Youtube premium and it's truly an amazing experience compared to the ad-ridden non-usable free Youtube. If Google created a similar Google premium where it had such features and no pesky ads I'd pay for it in a heartbeat.
I'm about to do this as well. Must be amazing experience. First when I stareted youtube on my FireStick it was one commercial 5 seconds. Then 2 comms 5 sec. Then 2 each 1:30 seconds, but I can "skip ads" after 5 sec. Now its 2, sometimes 3, each 2:50 (I seen ad for some Christian church had 28 minutes!) and sometimes no "skip ads" button. The YT+ cost $18 per month... alot, until you realize huge freedom of not wasting 15 to 30 minutes a day when you want to do some research and watch some science-focused videos.
Me too. and Youtube premium is insanely expensive for what it is.
yeah, but then your just encouraging them to make the free version a bad as is acceptable, like YouTube, and possibility create classes like on commercial airlines. you want the world divided into classes?
The world is already divided between "free" and "paid", so I'm not sure what you're getting at here
We already have classes, and some people do pay premium for better service and quality happily.
A world without that choice, where everyone's experience is equally bad ... how sad that would be. Just ask your average east-European soviet-era survivor.
