No it's not irrevant what Wallstreet expects. Please don't be ignorant. This is not some church or club we're talking about. > If users refuse to pay for subscriptions and keep blocking ads for reasons that have nothing to do with privacy or security, pretty soon as-blockers will become illegal. We Ad-Blocking software users laughed about that already in the 90s. Think about it. Same goes for DRM. A giant waste of money. The net grew from then on and it still is while computing power, web design, etc. got cheaper. So how do you explain it to yourself? Just think about it for a moment. There is no other justification then the need to generate MORE revenue. This is why you get less for more. The more google rapes here those who make the content for them, the essence of their existence, the more they threaten this part of their business because with every step away from centralized businesses like YouTube, they'll lose revenue or good. It won't come back. Nobody is coming back to Myspace or Facebook. In the end they just need to not be popular anymore and that doesn't take much or long those days.
