Its more then i thought but it gets split between creators you watch and its pretty vague on how that is devided, per view, based on time watched? With so many crap suggested and auto play id love to see some stats, many creators i enjoy switched to unmonitized and patriot support long before premium was a thing.
I get that hosting content costs money but that doesn't stop systems like torrentio to provide entirely free streams of literally any show in multiple variations of 4k resolution.
It doesn't have to be this way and the creators deserve much more.
But i too have a family, i understand the value in plug an play convenience, i can definitely see how its worth it you. If it works, and is affordable don't change it.
But for everyone else who may be tempted, there are great alternatives to watch and support alternatives without paying the techdragons toll.
