Rogan admittedly ripped off Ant's Live from the Compound idea and turned it into a media empire with millions of dedicated listeners. Ant ignored Rogan's valuable advice to do the same and avoid paywalls, and instead put his awkward, mediocre show behind a netflix-level paywall. He then pissed on the fans that supported him, and consequently is down to under 1K viewers.
A potato-nigger like Mister Metokur can do a random livestream talking about furries or other internet retards and pull in 10-20K viewers and make a ton of cash.
But sure, the paywall model has been a success. Delusional faggot.

How does that work? Could use some extra pocket money.
He has a large and pretty dedicated following (I'll watch whatever he does coz it's entertaining shit) and people donate through superchats. He can make thousands of dollars per stream. Imagine a guy with Anthony's size and popularity, even at the time of his firing doing something like that. He'd have made a shit ton of cash. YouTube even allows you to set up memberships for channels now so fans can show support, and StreamMe does too (which is where the killstream is now and Metokur streams there too now). Instead he's trapped by an ever increasing pay wall with an ever decreasing fan base.
On youtube you need 1000 subscribers before you can livestream, and the same before you can make money (and there's still no guarantee you'll get monetized these days). But StreamMe has no restrictions, at least as far as I'm aware. I've been considering doing it myself.

There are 12 year olds playing Minecraft who bring in more money on you tube than this old crone.

Well, thanks again. I'll have to think of something interesting without showing my face, but I'll look into Streamme for sure.
