Let's take YouTube Premium as an example to set a baseline. About 3% of users convert (50M vs 1.5B), for basically the same benefit.

Firefox starts with 200M users now and if 3% get Pro that is 6M users paying $5/month (?) for $30M/month and $360M/year in revenue. That is almost exactly that same as what Firefox makes from Google. The added benefit is that this change could transition it into a user-centric mindset.

Do you agree with the math?
