You’re paying because you want the product, but there’s incidentally a free ad-supported tier.

The way you phrase it makes it seem like you think they slapped ads on something that would have otherwise been a free gift.

Even more so - lots of content on YouTube wouldn't exist without the economic incentives to create it in the first place.
