Let's be real. Do you really believe it's the poor paying money for an ad supported tier? I don't. And if you really do, fine. I'll give the poor a pass if it will allow us to focus on the real problem. People who could afford to pay the full price, but are always chasing deals. It's also why amazon day exists. Yeah that day. When they raise the price so they can take 30% off and still be charging more than they were before. And then sell out in an hour. It's why airlines that don't charge absurd fees can't compete. A large block of people always chase the lowest price.
