YouTube also allows users to sell or rent their videos directly through the website [0], so this doesn't seem very different to me.

Not exactly sure why but I personally feel more comfortable buying media from Amazon than from YouTube. I feel like I should be getting everything for free from YouTube.

I agree. Contrariwise, even though I'm an Amazon Prime member, it very rarely occurs to me that there are videos on Amazon that might be "free" for me to watch. I just can't help thinking of it as a place to BUY things.
