Video hosting costs a lot of money. I wouldn't expect that to be delivered for free

Well then make Premium a reasonable price.

And just don't provide stuff for free. Nobody forces alphabet to provide youtube without account and for free.

It was a money sink since Google created it

They don't provide stuff for free, they provide stuff in exchange for your data and to sell ads.

They had a good thing going. YouTube was far from unprofitable. But the skyrocketing density and plummeting quality of ads drove people to adblockers.

I suspect though, the day will soon come when ad-space is no longer quite so valuable.

Youtube servers are terrible. Why not focus on offering a smoother experience? Then charge what you want.

What's terrible about them? I have no issues here in west Europe
