Oh, I fully agree, the moment we accepted the deal of ads for "free" stuff, it was always going to end this way.

There will only be a cease-fire when users start paying for what they use again. And even then, now that pandora's box is open, some will pull a hulu and try to double dip on both ads and a payment.
