You just said, "The sites I visit don't mind receiving money for disruptive, intrusive, battery-draining, bandwidth-consuming, rich-media advertisements, so I don't mind draining their wallets."

If there's someone who makes content you like to see, why don't you mind draining their wallet?

If there's someone who makes content I like to see, I purchase their merchandising, books, courses, assist to their events, etc., that's pretty simple.

Why support the middle man who just makes the Internet a worse place when you can directly support an author's efforts?

The advertisement business model just exists to justify the existence of low quality content.

Yeah? When was the last time you purchased a music video?

Okay, when was the last time you watched one?

You want to stand by that argument, or admit that you're talking out your butt?
