Youtube premium has been ad-free for 10 years. What kind of track record do you need? 20 years? 100 years?
- vinyl7 1y agoNetflix and other streaming sites have ads on some paid subscriptions. First they start with ad free subs, then introduce ads and introduce a higher priced tier to get rid of ads
- raincole 1y agoSo if one supermarket sold expired food, we should avoid another supermarket that has not been doing that for 10 years? Google/Youtube doesn't own Netflix. If anything, the reasonable response would be to unsub Netflix and sub its competitors, like, uh, Youtube.
- eviks 1y agoNo, if all the big supermarkets sell expired food from time to time to meet profitability expectations, there is no reason to believe one will be so unique as to be able to resist using the same industry standard, especially when it already has a much bigger expired food business
- WrongAssumption 1y agoCan't you just stop subscribing when that happens? You aren't signing a 5 year contract.
- eviks 1y agoIt has never been ad-free, sponsored segments have always existed
- izzydata 1y agoYoutube premium is still an ad driven business model. They are the ones making the problem worse so they can sell you the solution. The more you pay for Youtube Premium the more incentive they have to make ads worse.
