I prefer to pay for the services I actually use, not let someone else choose for me.

The pay here is for all you can eat.

You're already paying more for this on a per-household basis through advertising, for lower-quality content (and killing off quality), with no say on the endpoint publisher revenue, through ad-supported media.

Households with higher income would pay more. Households with low income would have access to all the world's published knowledge.

That seems like an exceedingly equitable trade.
