So the people who view the ads and make it possible for you to load just the content are suckers for doing so?

I'm not concerned with the business' model or how they plan to make a revenue. That's the CEO decision and he's smarter than me.

I'd be happy to pay for no ads, and I have before for streaming services. But as time goes on it gets harder and harder. Often the only choice is ads, at which point I block or move on to a different service.

Ads use up my time and attention. Which, to me, is much more valuable than a small amount of money.
