So the content creators have no right to demand compensation for creating “what you see“?
- heavyset_go 6y agoI have no problem paying for content. However, I'm not going to feel guilty for not going to a movie theater early so that I can see all of the trailers and commercials that are shown before the movie I want to see. I'm also not going to feel guilty for fast forwarding through commercials on TV. Content creators are not entitled to decide what ads I choose to see and not see.
- pabs3 6y agoMovies themselves are full of advertising; the protagonist could use Apple products for example.
- int_19h 6y agoThey have the right to demand compensation, but the appropriate way to do that is to gatekeep - i.e. don't provide access until the user pays (or promises to pay). When they serve content with ads, they are not demanding anything.

- o_p 6y agoThe internet was better when content creators did it for the lulz instead of chasing money.
- vehemenz 6y agoYes, they do. It's called a server-side paywall.
- sergiotapia 6y agoI don't care, at all.
