What a odd utility function. I'd compare car manufacturers to get a good value for my money.
On Youtube, what do I care that a creator of a fun video I enjoyed gets the ad buyer's money, rather than some "technically superior" creator? Unless they're using the revenue to fund terrorism or oil lobbying or something.

On YouTube I "pay" with my limited attention and expect good value. Value can mean different things for different people. Personally, I'd choose "technically superior" first, then "funny".
