No, I think it's a reasonable stance. I pay for Crunchyroll and Hidive because I like the paid service they provide, it's a good experience that they are providing and I find value in it. Why would I pay for something that I don't find value in, something where a company tries to actively downgrade the experience of its users rather than try to upgrade the experience of its paid service? I like services where they don't try to actively screw over their users. I pay for Lastfm and Trakt too, because again I like the paid service that they provide.
It's hard to provide something extra when all their content comes from users. They tried with ~~redtube~~ YouTube Red originals but those were pretty lame.
