    Shit, dude, I was in your corner until the edit. It’s supposed to be about choice. Those that wanna pay, pay. Those that can put up with ads, put up with them. Those that wanna say fuck YouTube, well, arr matey.

    So, you rock on with your choice. You didn’t, as far as I can see, bitch at anyone else’s choice, so keep on rocking.

    But ffs, never, ever whine about votes. Doesn’t matter if they’re up or down, they’re just part of the forum. You say your peace, you get the votes you get (and if you check my user history, you’ll see plenty of shit I’ve said where I did exactly that, so this isn’t from someone that’s all pristine or shit), and that’s the way it is.

      I mean the free choice argument falls apart a bit when you consider that YouTube is essentially a monopoly.
