It's YouTube's fault for setting the wrong expectations when they benefited from wild growth and success by being free all these years. I dare they go 100% paywalled. I know they won't. Otherwise they can't double dip on both premium and advertiser money. Even if they manage to go 100% paywall, it's inevitable that they will start introducing adverts to paying customers as well.
