I can't emphasize enough how much both models sucks, both for content creators and comsumers.
In both, the service holds a huge amount of power:
- It can remove a content at any time, for any reason.
- Because it receives the money in the first place, it can also increase its cut whenever it wants.
- Because of the centralization of content and consumers on a handful of services, creators have usually no leverage to negociate better conditions.
