Here's the problem: the alternative is ads, and I don't think the ad model is sustainable.
I'm going to make a snarky old man statement. I don't mean it in a belittling way it's just something I do.
Start reading books, there are no ads. Reading is more difficult than watching television but boy it's amazing when you find a great story and you just can't put the book down.
Should we also pirate the book?
Books that are more than 15 years old? Yes.
But you usually pay for books...
I usually borrow them for free from my library
