I’d pay for YouTube premium if t wasn’t more expensive than HBO. It’s ridiculous. Especially considering YouTube has no production costs. It’s all user-generated content.

the users do get paid though, although i'm sure it's a fraction of what youtube makes.

It's such a low number most people would be disgusted.

We're talking a few bucks for a million views.

It's about 1$ per 1000 views. Source: my small YT channel.
