But when "free" suddenly disappears (or shrinks, or gets put behind a paywall, where it should be) THEN people will "get it". But by then there will be one helluva backlash from the Millenials.

Especially in porn. Look at what people consume for free in huge amounts. Porn, film, TV, music, books, and social media. Which one of those would people not consume if they had to pay for it?
None and the proof is all those industries sold more than they do now.
Take out Ad-funded sites and the 99.9% of free surfers on Tubes would have to go back to buying or rely on a far inferior product. Did we sell a to a higher percentage of surfers in 2005 than 2016?
Barry is too lazy to earn more from consumers who pay for porn.
