I'm not argueing "for ads". The previous poster doesn't want ads, doesn't want to pay, okay, so then what? Offer an alternative please.

The people who want the content most could pay the content creators. These creators would pay for video hosting in the same way they already pay for their hardware and software.

This way, you wouldn't have to pay (which is what the parent comment wants). But you would still have an incentive to pay, because if not enough people did, the content you liked might might not get made.

So in essence, someone else should pay. Just not me. Real solid plan
