Wait, people pay for that?
I pay for YouTube premium because I like the idea of content creators getting paid when I watch their videos. I don't want to manually send each of them money or sign up for their channel memberships or anything. But if they make videos that I watch and they get a kickback? I'm fine with that.
I also have a YouTube channel that bring in a bit of beer money, so I use that to justify the cost.
Yup. Pretty much. 🤷🏼♂️
That is generally why people pay for things
