I’m not sure whether this has already been brought up in the comments, but why are aesthetics not included in the list? I’m thinking of cases like free-to-play games such as League of Legends, Fortnite or Apex Legends whose business models consists of selling aesthetic upgrades and in-game assets that don’t affect gameplay at all. They’ve proven to be extremely lucrative.

Also, isn’t privacy and/or security a huge thing that many opt to pay for, even when free non-private/secure options are available?

If you are a musician, not a company how leave on top of them, you can publish your songs on various free streaming sites (like Youtube, Dailymotion, Vimeo, …) having some non-invasive ads and ask for support in the form: “hey! You like my songs and you are a web-designer? Please help me making a good looking website to host my music, free of charge, downloadable in .ogg, .mp3 etc instead of being tied to a streaming service. If your songs are good you obtain a nice-looking website for free and you can pay a hosting for it with the small income from advertisements. You can put a “donate” button on you new site. If you are really good you get money from it+the *non invasive* ads. That’s the path. Simply we do not need anymore music Big company. At least small recording studios scattered around the world. Make music is an art, not a business and should be rewarded as an art. If you make music for getting a Limousine, well, better chose another “job”.

Agree. Why do we assume inevitability of these bad things and surrender to them?

In reply to Tala.

It’s a difference of fixed cost vs. variable cost.

You’re correct that everyone pays to keep their part of the infrastructure running — you pay for your cell phone, Google pays for its servers, ISPs pay for their cable lines, etc. That’s fixed cost.

But the variable cost of sending one more tweet over the already-running internet is so close to zero that it is free. Maybe it’s a millionth of a kilowatt-hour of electricity, which averages $0.00000015 in the United States in 2017.
