Would Google have reached today's size if it had charged from day one?
I would gladly pay for Google Search as I can't do my job without it. But what additional features would they offer when 1) there's growing privacy concerns and legislation coming (so not using your personal data isn't doable and/or will be required anyway) and 2) they pretty much offer everything for free today (and it'd be a downgrade if they downscale free users and made people pay for something they already get for free!).
It's a tough spot to be if you're thinking about an alternative to ads.
