So because they earn money somewhere else they should do something else for free? Why? What does Google owe us?

They only have the monopoly if we give it to them. I find their model fair, I use their service a lot. if they overprice me I'll find another form of entertainment.

But you are right, people see YouTube as a necessity at this point. I'm trying to remind you, it's not.

YouTube is a lot more than just entertainment. Not trying to argue your overall point just pointing that out.
