    Partially for the same reason I don’t pay for Xbox live and whatever Nintendo and Sony have; I refuse to pay a service charge for an online platform when I already purchased the hardware (in this case, computer/phone) and pay an ISP for internet access.

    If they want my data and to use my bandwidth they can damn well pay for it.

      Do you realize you’re using their bandwidth, too? They have to pay for upload/download just like you do.
