    “Modest?” $14 a month? $5 would be modest. I literally pay less for whole as streaming services.

      I’d probably pay $5, and I’d certainly pay $2-3. But I don’t watch enough to justify $10+/month.

      If you watch enough youtube per month to see an hour of ads and you can’t block ads for some reason, you may actually be losing time/money by not paying the subscription. That said, there are ad blockers for almost every platform so it shouldn’t be too difficult to find one that works.

        Which, as the article states, they are starting to end that practice.

          That was my comment about the amount that should be charged. I’ll happily pay $5/mo, but not $15. I’m happy to pay for services, just not the amount that many want to charge.
