What's really an insult are ad-based tiers from streaming services where they make money from both you and people advertising to you.
It has been shown to be more profitable than higher priced ad-free tiers.

I'm bracing for a near future where premium "ad-free" goes away entirely and you have the choice between lots of ads for free and less ads for money.
