I suspect that my (passive) valuation of entertainment, given the culture that I grew up in, partly stems from growing up with ad subsidized radio. It feels like music is almost a public service, but for buying a receiver, not choosing the playlist, and switching stations when the ads come on. I suspect the availability of a public library inclulcated similar expectations in me. Eventually, I paid for movies and songs. But, youtube and other internet content hosts fit most in that mode whereby I can eat from the buffet to my limit, provided I bat away the promotional posters as I sit down.
