      I pay for that, because YouTube and YouTube Music is the main source of media for me And my family and I have no issue with paying for a service that I use a lot. And paying for that is so much easier then investing huge amounts of time into searching for and maintaining alternative Players and Tools for all the different devices where I (and my family) consume YouTube and YouTube Music. My limited time is more valuable for me then the price for the service.

        I can understand if you want to pay. But don’t say it’s hard to block ads when all you need is uBlock origin installed… And that’s it. It’s literally a 15 seconds job for the rest of the life of your browser.

      As I said in a previous post, people are afraid of pirating, so they prefer higher prices if it is a “safe” method.

          I agree, but as long as corporations like YouTube, Nintendo and Hollywood exist and people have this “normal” mentality, they will hardly be willing to be truly educated about it.

            And there’s the sad truth of it. Best we can do is those few of us who care enough to be educated do our best to make what we do hurt those scum suckers where it hurts them the most.
