Comment on YouTube Tests Showing Ads When You Pause a Video, Calls it ''Pause Ads''
CileTheSane@lemmy.ca 6 months agoIf McDonald’s started charging $100 for a cheeseburger, the response of “well who’s going to pay for it?” Would not be appropriate.
The cost is too high and is only increasing because of greed.

The cost is too high? Seriously?
You’re not paying anything for the service. You have no concept of what their costs are. You’re mildly inconvenienced by some annoying and slightly obtrusive ads.
It’s a business, not a charity. And they owe you nothing.

They are charging me my time through ads.
Neither do you, but I know Google will shut down anything not profitable enough and they haven’t shut down YouTube.
