I'm not totally convinced that people actually "want" all that ad-supported content, if in this case we're talking about Internet articles and television programs. We consume it when it's there and easy to obtain, but that's a pretty low bar in terms of wanting something. Who's to say that we wouldn't find better uses for our time if all of that content disappeared? Maybe something we actually cared about enough to pay for?

Find a better use of your time and, for you at least, the content will disappear. Voila.
It happens even faster if you consume it and block all ads embedded. And sometimes there are even hidden gems between crap content!
