True, I actually do buy games - if they are DRM free - solely because I like getting updates. I cannot get myself to every buy DRM games though since I've had so many issues in the past, I just pirate them.

But for music, tv, movies, etc. I just don't understand how making is slightly "easier" justifies paying a monthly fee and also still having to watch fucking ads a lot of the times, network outages.

On Android you can also install Kiwi Browser, which is chromium-based and can install ublock origin. But as far as I know, vanced can't cast to a smart tv (mine claims that Google Play Services is pit of date) and if I cast the Kiwi Browser to YouTube it essentially becomes regular (with ads) YouTube.
