    So you want someone to broadcast, and you’re willing to pay for it, but not willing to support the content creators in any way?

      I would happily watch ads if they were non-intrusive and non-interrupting ads like side banners that don’t cause popups, or product placement inside videos.

      I would also pay for a platform where 100% of the money goes to paying for hosting and paying the creators.

      Neither of these things are happening, so yes, I would rather donate to support piracy.
