Why would they ever do that when they can make the website more intrusive and annoying to use?
The problem is that they make it unreasonable when they get greedy and many people don't tolerate their shit. This isn't a "people won't pay for the service" problem. We've all paid for streaming services. I personally won't when it feeds into their shenanigans.
Well, it was exactly as described and also free like 8 years ago.
