    Youtube was always operating at a loss. Fueld by Google advertising money.

    This means they killed almost every competition.

    Now they want to leverage their monopoly and make it profitable. This means you must have a subscription. The ads aren’t going to cut it. This will not pay the servers and shit. Only a subscription will do. However youtube aims for much gains so be ready to pay much more than needed.

    The ads they now aggressively show of course pay some shit but the main goal seems to be being as annoying as possible to get people to pay for the subscription.
