I know memory is fairly cheap but e.g. there are millions of new videos on youtube everyday, each probably few hundred MBs to few GBs. It all has to take enormous amount of space. Not to mention backups.

    I’m generally the first to criticize Google, but when it comes to pushing ads on YouTube I’m having a hard time really condemning them for it. I struggle to wrap my head around how this service can exist at all.

    Also, second to direct transactions, I’d much rather have Google make money through ads than anything else.

      Agreed, I pay for Google premium and in the world of corporate crap and fees and stuff I’m ok with that value trade off relatively. Hell, I would have paid for Reddit, too, if they weren’t assholes.
