It's disappointing they're going to have ads on these paid videos. Like with Hulu+, I see no point in paying if the experience is still shitty.

OP's link served an ad to me before I could see the page. Screw that - this is all over everywhere else w/ no ad-before-you-read:<p><a href="http://abcnews.go.com/Technology/report-youtube-launch-paid-subscriptions/story?id=18344933" rel="nofollow">http://abcnews.go.com/Technology/report-youtube-launch-paid-...</a><p><a href="http://mashable.com/2013/01/29/youtube-paid-channel-subscriptions/" rel="nofollow">http://mashable.com/2013/01/29/youtube-paid-channel-subscrip...</a><p><a href="http://www.dailydot.com/news/youtube-subscriptions-networks-paid-bundles/" rel="nofollow">http://www.dailydot.com/news/youtube-subscriptions-networks-...</a><p><a href="http://thenextweb.com/2013/01/29/youtube-could-roll-out-paid-subscriptions-for-select-channels-as-early-as-this-spring/" rel="nofollow">http://thenextweb.com/2013/01/29/youtube-could-roll-out-paid...</a>

There is a price discrimination opportunity here, as well as the opportunity to take advantage of parental paranoia. "Subscribe to Facetube for only $49.99 per month and ensure that your kid's viewing habits won't end up in some employer background check in the future!"<p>I'd buy it.
