- Eddy_Viscosity2 3y agoThe ads are never going away. We tried the 'pay your way' system with things like netflix and prime video, and guess what's on the way? Now you get to pay for it AND see ads.
- j0hnyl 3y agoNetflix doesn't work as an analogy here, because as a subscriber you're not paying the filmmakers directly.
- meheleventyone 3y agoThe point from the OP there is less who gets paid but that not running ads leaves money on the table so money oriented people will eventually notice that and run ads as well as collect money directly. Though I’d say this is more of an issue for the Netflixes of the world that have to please investors.
