I think it will come eventually. Bandwidth is getting cheaper (at least I think it is) and video compression is getting better all the time (saving on storage and bandwidth), both lowering the cost of operating such a service. This is why I feel YouTube’s crusade against ad blockers is short sighted. Sure they can get away with it now but it might cost them in the future against potential competition. Even viewers who don’t watch ads might add value to your platform’s content in the form of comments and votes. Energy would be better used trying to find out why viewers hate their ads so much and if there is a way to remedy it and get some kind of compensation.
