I often notice when I watch anime on funimation youtube channle that the top comments are always ones that whine about the commercial, know anyone that's had any real world experience knows why those commercials are there but there are a lot of people who think they deserve to watch FREE anime without commercials when they've done nothing on there end. I also see this with the video game community when it comes to unreleased games. Anyone that's been on a video game fan forum when the company announces a "delay" will know what I mean or even people that play free games (note I mean people who play for free without spending ANY money on the game).
I in no way think people can't have an opinion on something but I often see a lot of "white wine" on the internet these days.
What do you guys think?

Over-entitlement is rife anywhere where people are told they can (or actually can) get whatever they want with little to no effort. The internet is a perfect environment for this, everything is almost immediately available in a quick sufficiently vetted search and a few clicks.
Can also comes from people attaching general investment value to something (like say, existing) and expecting that to carry everywhere regardless of where it is or the actual requirements.

Yes.
And worse: people seem to feel that if the creators of content require payment to enjoy it, that's unjustified greed, and the users have every right to attempt to evade such payment by downloading "pirated" or "cracked" copies.

Yes, many people on the internet do. I usually just watch the free fansubs, because it's easier that way.

This site certainly indicates it.
It's not having what you want - It's wanting what you've got.

well a big part of why people are upset about ads on youtube comes from the fact that ads are only a fairly recent addition to youtube. people used to not have to watch them. now they do. so from that point of view, it's understandable to an extent

I always found the sense of entitlement here to be tame, at least compared to Starcraft II's.
