Google has been doing it with YouTube for as long as there has been a paid version of it. If you're a premium subscriber, the creators you watch get a portion of your subscription based on how much you watch them. It's why premium subscriber views are worth more than free views.
That's why IMO YouTube premium is worth it. My subscription supports the creators I watch and I get no ads.
