Agreed. The web would be much, much smaller if we all blocked ads, but the quality of the content would likely be much higher. I'm in favour of that. Occasionally I stumble upon a website full of information written by a passionate individual - these are the best. Example from my bookmarks: http://vwlowen.co.uk/index.htm (I included the index to show the ".htm" bit - now there's a blast from the past!).

It would certainly be more exclusive. Though based on the things I see some friends spending on, I'm not convinced that's better. ('Essential' oils, homeopathy, heavily processed foods, luxuries that bankrupt them, etc.)
