Video hosting costs a lot of money. I wouldn't expect that to be delivered for free

They had a good thing going. YouTube was far from unprofitable. But the skyrocketing density and plummeting quality of ads drove people to adblockers.

I suspect though, the day will soon come when ad-space is no longer quite so valuable.

Well then make Premium a reasonable price.

And just don't provide stuff for free. Nobody forces alphabet to provide youtube without account and for free.

It was a money sink since Google created it

They don't provide stuff for free, they provide stuff in exchange for your data and to sell ads.

Youtube servers are terrible. Why not focus on offering a smoother experience? Then charge what you want.
