    You say that today. Give it a couple years. I’m pretty sure that by 2030, the cost will be ~100 dollars/euros/whatever per month and you’ll see 2 minutes of ads for every single minute of content you watch. (Okay, maybe the number of ads is an exaggeration, but I don’t think the monthly cost is.)

    Don’t pay the Danegeld. It never makes them go away.

      Paying a business to provide a service you use is not ransom.

      “They might raise prices later” is an idiotic reason not to pay for something.
