> People can purchase/rent content from 10000 sources, it's not what made YT useful originally. Correct, but now I can do all my online-video-related activities in one place. How is "going to 10000 different sources" better than that? Google already has my credit card info. Ability to purchase content on YT means I don't have to give my CC details to yet another website. How is that not a good thing for the user? > 1) Constant ads, from "skip in 4 seconds" to "you have to watch all 30s, sucka". I prefer that experience over alternatives which have even more intrusive ads. >2) Taking off videos, or taking off their audio content, when some media company decides the music is theirs. This can happen to any website. Google is just complying with the law. Are you proposing that Google should violate the law? > 3) Forced G+ integration. I agree, its bad. But saying YT is "ruined" because of that is hyperbole.
