Wholeheartedly agree with your point. People that put a lot of work into creating content deserve to make an income from it. You wouldn't ask a a developer to build you a free house, or a restaurant to make you free food. Content creation, be it a website, an article, a video or whatever it may be takes a lot of time, effort, and lets not forget experience. All of this time spent so you can have something interesting to do on that computer, people feeling too entitled to free content are misguided. Currently advertising is the ONLY business model that works in a predicable manner, and until we find something different, or perhaps better, we should allow ads to be displayed in support for our favourite content creators.
