I wouldn’t mind paying a few cents, but 8€ is way more than what he could possibly get out of the ads.

(Note: I seem to remember shady stuff about the BAT token but I do not know the details. Don’t incendiate me on that).

Smarttube next doesn’t require rooting the device, it can be sideloaded. Sideloading is not very complicated. Google is not trying to block any sideloading (at the moment, at least).
