Fair enough, but the grandparent's point was specifically about circumventing the ads, no? At least that was what I was addressing.

> It's like paying the mall because the comic book shop I like is inside the mall, so that the mall can finance and advertise all the things I hate in life, while also killing the exposure of the comic book shop.

But you're fine with some percentage of whatever you spend in that store going back to the mall in form of rent? Seems like an accounting detail to me.

not my problem, that's for renters to handle.

I don't care if they pay for it or not, I simply care to buy my comics.

But if the mall starts asking me for a subscription just to enter the mall, I'm going somewhere else.
