We have limited resources. Those who can do the most with them will be able to pay a higher price, and in a limited supply situation, the laws of supply and demand are clear.

This must be an option they switch on from the content creators side. I can still choose 1080p on my bullshit motorcycle content creators.

Sorry chuddy, AI is eating up all the compute and datacenter capacity, we have to ration bandwidth on a caste and class based system.

Google only cares about ads and data harvesting, always treating their users with the lowest priority. I'm surprised they ever got this far.

I'd be okay with this if they returned to 2018 bitrates

>>109776960
A/B testing maybe? All videos I watch also still have 1080p and even 1080p60 for free. I mostly only watch content from small niche channels and creators though.
