How could hosting other people’s work and at most giving them a cut of the ad revenue be more expensive than

A. Paying for streaming rights to other people’s work. B. Creating your own works And C. Paying to host all of the above. ???

Unless you’re saying that the hours streamed from YouTube is so vastly more than any streaming service that it out costs all the other costs Netflix etc has in licensing and content creation.

I thought the same thing for 20+ years. A nice rice cooker is great though. Ours has a yumcarb setting that my wife likes, which has a separate basket with holes in it. Most of the starch leaks out of the rice and pools below it.

I imagine if it’s not disclosed clearly before you order, you can dispute it with your bank/cc company. If it is, and you still decide to give that company business, then I guess that’s on you.
