What do you mean "failed"? They're double dipping and earning twice the money. They get the YT advertising cut and the Patreon/paid adverts cut.
It's like your Cable TV or favorite newspaper charging you for subscription and then filling up the content with ads because they can earn FROM BOTH.
- csours 5y agoI can't exactly define the failure, but it sure feels like there has been some failure here.
- izacus 5y agoWell, failure for whom? Capitalism was satisfied, money is earned, we users are skinned and provided shittier experience. I keep being told this is modern economy working as intended -_-

The advertising cut is not much at all and it's really hard to sustain anything on it. > It's like your Cable TV or favorite newspaper charging you for subscription and then filling up the content with ads because they can earn FROM BOTH. It's more like the flip of that, content having ads but you can subscribe too. If video makers had an easy way to disable ads for direct subscribers, I bet almost all of them would do it right away.
