    I haven’t watched live tv in almost 20 years because I refuse to sit through ads, and I definitely won’t sit through them on YouTube. If it was a banner or some thing on the page or the side of video that would be more acceptable, but sitting through ads to watch a YouTube video….there’s just no way.

        I basically don’t subscribe to any streaming services, but we got the family plan years ago and share it with a few friends and family that chip in a couple bucks each.

        It’s so affordable and the content on YouTube is second to none.

        I’m so happy to help content creators earn a living content I genuinely care about rather than studios led by c-suite committees.
