Still holding out for them to have a $10 a year tier with no added features. The $36 bucks a year entry fee is just too much.
Can someone here explain to me why so many free services directly jump to $3, $5 or $9.99 bucks a month? Why not $10 per year? Surely that's better than nothing?
Just call it supporter tier and that's it. I don't want any icons or upload limits either. I just want to not feel like a leech. ;)

If a free tier is offered, why would you be a leech? It’s calculated in their business and free users indirectly bring revenue (the more free users they have, the more they can convert). This concept of being a leech is so alien to me.
-
Probably because of torrenting I would imagine. Being a leech is kind of a dick move if you're able to seed.
-
This has nothing to do with torrenting apart from a similar sounding word.

I dont understand it either. I would happily donate to signal yearly like 10-15€, but 5 every month? No, thats just too much sorry.

What's really an insult are ad-based tiers from streaming services where they make money from both you and people advertising to you.
-
It has been shown to be more profitable than higher priced ad-free tiers.
I'm bracing for a near future where premium "ad-free" goes away entirely and you have the choice between lots of ads for free and less ads for money.

Because 5 bucks a month is making way more money than 50 cents.
