As an alternative, would you pay 1cent per video you watch? Apparently, there are 4 billion youtube videos watched per day. That's $14 billion in revenue annually.

Apparently, their current revenue is estimated in gthe $3.5 billion range.

i say 1 cent per video, and bill me monthly. Or 1 cent/minute of video.

If you're a creator, you get a discount (to keep people creating), or your friends can watch for free, or something like that so that only the viral videos are charging $$.

Just an idea.
