Same. I've got ad blocking on our whole network but still pay for YTP because it's actually worth it for us.

You can get background play via using FireFox, video downloading with extensions or other programs, and play anything on hotel TVs with a video cable from a laptop or any other device. All without paying the great beast.

I'm not going to implement multiple workarounds on our android and apple phones and plug a laptop into a tv every time I want to watch YouTube on it. YTP is well worth my few dollars a month.

lol have fun paying megacorps into perpetuity over five minutes of effort... your attitude is exactly why mega corps get to shit on everyone and get away with it.

It's not air, my dude. You or I could just choose to live without YouTube instead of feeling like we're entitled to it for free. My money goes directly to the creators, to each and every one of them, when I watch their videos. Are you subscribing to all your creators' patreons or making one-time donations each time you watch their videos?

A luxury product exists for a certain cost, that cost is negligible to me, I pay it and enjoy the product.

Way to excuse yourself from handing money to more than problematic people...
