Like I said, subscriptions barely matter for the artists on those projects. Actors and animators generally get no royalties from streaming.

So if the actors and artists get a fair contract, you will happily pay for subscriptions?

Happily, not really. I pay for YouTube Premium, but I don't like the monopoly they have and disagree with a lot of their decisions. I'd rather have a different economic system.

But yeah, I'd be willing to pay for the subscription in that case, even if I end up pirating most everything to get a better service.
