Once they got into the censorship business it was my pleasure to rip them off any which way I can.
What “product” of YouTube’s do you mean? YT doesn’t make all those videos. The people who post videos can pay for the right to post them, but YouTube has gotten so GREEDY that it’s actually a burden waiting for the adds to play before watching the desired content.
Whenever I try to watch a video from a link posted here on FreeRepublic, I have to sit thru one, and frequently TWO commercials of at least two minutes each in duration before I can see the subject I went there to watch.
It’s extremely frustrating and irritating. RIDICULOUS…
Actually, the business model is that YT has STOLEN lots of music. And then they collect ad revenue from listeners. How is that okay under the “personal use” exemption?
This is a consequence of Supreme Court ruling on sharing videos from way back during the VCR days.

The SCOTUS occasionally has to CHANGE the law. Like they did with the Wayfair decision on Sales Taxes.
Does Texas Gator understand?
