Well, sure, you could not roll out a new revenue model that millions of users are interested in because of some holdout content creators [1], but, um, somehow I don't think that's how that meeting would go...

[1] This comment claims that YouTube said over 98% of content watched is signed up ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10429470 ).
