I mean there are ads.. does the ad revenue not counteract the licensing fees?

How many people use ad blockers?

It's not like when an ad is served and seen by the user, the user always buys the advertised product...

They should come up with ad blockers, that block the ad on the user side, but did the system behind it, the ad is still being served and no one loses anything.

I guess, this is, what the ones are doing, that still work.
