I like something I saw on here awhile ago that was something like " streaming services where only successful because they where slightly more convenient that pirating " for a while I mostly used a couple of streaming services despite most of the apps having really bad interfaces . But my Plex server has been growing in size lately while the streaming services are being cancelled.
My breaking point for paying for something that I could otherwise get for free is convenience. Doesn't even need to be a lot, I just refuse to pay for a product that artificially more of a hassle than the identical product that I can obtain for free.
It's not so much that I want a superior product, it's that I refuse to pay money for an inferior alternative.
My line is ads if I'm paying for something I'm not watching ads . I actually pay for YouTube premium because it's worth it in my opinion for the amount I use for it and I use YouTube music alot too .
