In that case, I look forward to downloading and torrent seeding my pirated youtube videos. DRM will not stop piracy. I will pirate the fuck out of youtube.
They could have made good money with a reasonable amount of ads but they are greedy and wanted huge and endless profits. They claim to need to make these changes to cover operating costs but they still post higher than expected profits every quarter. I stopped using google search, mail, calendar, and have grapheneOS on my phone. I used to be a google fanboy, but it is so bad now I can't stand to open their page. Fuck the people that work at google that ruined one of the best ways to access all of human knowledge so they can afford another tesla.
So sure, for the big youtubers that's probably workable. Probably not for the few thousand vidw youtubers you like tho
