Why is /g/ so against paying for streaming services?

having a black man fucking your wife in front of you makes you less of a cuck than paying for youtube

If you support streaming then you support white genocide. It's really that simple.

paying for things is retarded

Because you can get anything for free

Why are streaming services so against providing quality content?

>>105606586
I don't see how this helps achieve white genocide.

>frivolous spending
We're lazy, not stupid.

>>105604102 (OP)
Because I didn't in 2007.

If you want to live in a utopian world, then you have to adopt a free mindset over everything.

>>105604102 (OP)
cheapfags are unreal.

>i want everything for free with no ads and no tracking and double no ads. and it needs to be super fast loading and in 4k ultra hd.

>>105607465
It's a white man thing. You jeets would never understand.

>>105604126
This is why.

Nobody is asking why this dude doesn't get paid for his insightful yet humorous content, even though its arguably more entertaining than anything I've seen on a streaming platform in decades.

Why don't you pay for 4chan?

Theyre greedy fuckers. Google shouldn't have bought it.

They should be satisfied with inflation numbers like 2-4% revenue growth yoy but they're aiming for 8-12%.

They've literally run out of kids and Indians on the planet to have watch ads and they're just raising prices and increasing ads to absurd levels at this point.
This shit isn't sustainable they'd raise prices even if everyone was paying for it like Netflix does. Netflix even has ads on the cheapest subscription now ffs.

Most are just autistic and poor, so they need to scrounge for every last penny.

I have no problem paying for YouTube Premium + Apple Music. I do draw the line at Netflix/Hulu etc.

They fact that you can pay for 4k but due to bitrate throttling on the providers end you can get something that looks worse than a 1080p blu ray is complete horseshit.

Budget, I'm not gonna pay that much.

This. If you have money you have no problem with paying Tyrone so he fucks your wife

>>105604102 (OP)
Because it is worse than paying for cable.
You will end up with 10 different subscriptions that add up to more for worse content.

>>105607585
Stay poor and stay mad.

I’m not opposed to paying for services in principle, the issue is the amount of data they track and keep from you. Who knows what they use that shit for and you know for a fact that they are NEVER deleting it.

If you could pay for their services with Monero and they never kept any data on you maybe I would pay.

i don't watch much stuff, and the few things i do watch are all on different platforms
i'm not paying for 5 different services to watch a few episodes a week
if they offered episodes for a couple dollars and i could keep the file i probably would, but i'm not going backwards from video store rentals by paying continuously for something i don't use much, especially since everything's split up across tons of services

>>105607634
actually scratch keeping the file, i'll pay less to just watch it once. i don't usually rewatch stuff anyway
it's why i don't get physical releases either, they cost a lot for something i won't watch twice in the vast majority of cases

>>105607626
Kek, seething poorfag exposed. You are just jelly over the fact that you can't afford a Premium Black Bvll.

>>105604102 (OP)
You will own nothing and you will be happy

>>105607465
Yes I want things to be the way they were in 2007. Thank you for understanding.

>>105604102 (OP)
The overwhelming majority of contents is unwatchable, and ads will still be pushed. If I pirate I get what I want, when I want no ads ever, AND free.

>>105604102 (OP)
Because I am entitled to free entertainment, regardless how much money it cost to made said entertainment.

>>105609215
Unironically this. Can barely earn enough to live even at 12h a day slaving for nothing. If it weren't for free entertainment (bread and CIRCUS, 'member?) there would be hell to pay. But I'm happy being an entertained slave.

>>105604203
How about buying DRM-free games on GOG and pirating anything else? Supporting good, not supporting bad. Owning what is bought. Having something that wouldn't be owned either way. If most people did this we would get actual DRM-free of the rest, because the only sales would be DRM-free so they would need to fold to sell their games. But people are retarded.

>>105609717
I don't like it because most games are unplayable slop and devs almost universally sell out when they get my money.

>pay $80/mo for no ads
>still get ads cuz now it's a "limited ads" plan
>pay $100/mo for no ads
>still get ads cuz now it's a "limited ads" plan
Repeat ad nauseam as paypigs have no honor or dignity, easy infinite money cheat.

>>105604102 (OP)
The question is why (You) aren't against sucking corporate cock.

>>105604102 (OP)
google is the one begging me for money, in this instance
when they scrape data for their models that nobody will use, they're not eager to recompense the people they took from. They do whatever they can get away with, and so do I.

>>105604102 (OP)
Normalizing paying for Youtube will likely end up with fragmentation of "free" streaming services. Some will switch to those who still aren't monetized, others will stay. As time goes on, some of the others will fall to monetization, either because "those fools are actually paying for it", or just because it'll be effectively required to move a lot of money for such a platform. So now you're paying over $50 for what used to be free.

Besides that, there's also the doxxing yourself part, and you don't get any privacy despite being a paying customer; you often still get ads even after paying, and it's getting worse; platforms start shaping themselves after what "sells" and you get shit like shorts; it just sets a precedent for "just pay for everything lol". I'm sure there's plenty of other downsides.

In spite all this, people still can't post and watch whatever they want ( that's legal), because """"fringe"""" content might wake up an NPC or two. In fact, just about everything continues to get worse, meanwhile tons of that earned money is spent trying to solve non-problems like ad blockers and swear words.

>>105604102 (OP)
can you point to one thing that's worth my money?

>>105604102 (OP)
Why are there multiple threads shilling Youtube premium?

>>105604102 (OP)
Because I can not pay for them

>>105604102 (OP)
by law, your online payments must have verified identity. when you sign up you don't think jewgle cant see that?

>white genocide
Jews are far more afraid of muzzies than you, Steven, brit whites gave them their fortress of pedophilia and murder in the middle east and the only people to turn a gun on them since are browns

I'd say you're a good enough goy that they don't care about genociding you, you bark when they say bark

>>105604102 (OP)
i am in principle against providing recurring revenue (i.e. rent) for any company. same reason i don't pay utilities

>>105604102 (OP)
Because more often than not you're getting an objectively worse product than what you would get by pirating while also paying your hard earned money for it.

>>105610910
Google jeets need to earn their lentils

>>105607465
I'm ok with 720p, but yeah I refuse to watch ads and I won't pay to just listen to videogame songs.

shut your mouth 4chan pass nigger
