Amazes me how people in a tech industry paying six figures refuse to pay a tiny percentage of their income to get rid of adverts on something that consumes so much time.

There's a very emotional "I'm not paying for YouTube" feeling that some people have. They try and justify it with logic after the fact, but the underlying principal seems too simply be "I'm not gonna pay for YouTube, I deserve to get everything for free!" Like, you get paid at your job where you work, which gets you money. Paying other people money for their work, however, suddenly that's just not ok. Somehow.
