"hate" advertising. Let's not misquote.

It does seem a bit irrational to expect everything for free. The other option is payment. In discussion threads there are a lot of people that say "I'll gladly pay for no advertising", but real life so far has not given me reason to believe that that group is actually of a relevant size.




"Let's not misquote."

Sorry. Corrected.

"It does seem a bit irrational to expect everything for free"

Who said anything about "expecting everything for free"? I pay for a lot of things. I'd pay to access my favourite content if it was required.


> Sorry. Corrected.

Thanks.
