|1. Content creators have to be paid, or much of the web I know and love will cease to exist. 2. Life without ads is much better.

One of the nice things about ads is that it allows many users to browse content for free - subsidised by those that interact with adverts.

If advertising were to go away and micro-payments replace it - how do users get free access to content subsidised by the masses? I can freely browse the most internet today from anywhere in the world regardless of my income situation. A micro-payments barrier to entry isn't going to allow that.

Also those who are most likely to pay for a solution like this are likely the most affluent who are likely to be the ones clicking and buying products through advertising.
