Ooh, I didn't know that about Red. I thought everyone was benefiting. I need to look into that. I wouldn't be surprised if Youtube is suffering financially from Red, b/c they always seem to be making bad financial decisions and have never actually been profitable. I think it'd be hilarious if they took profit sharing away.

Oh God, I really hate them trying to be like Hulu. No one wants YouTube TV. Honestly, with how spread out the shows are online, people are having to pay for Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon (although that has other benefits as well), so idk why they'd want to pay for Red, unless they want to cancel their music prescription and use Google's music service. It's all too much. I'm glad I can sponge off my friend's and family's accounts b/c there's no way I'd pay for any of that. If I had the money, I'd just get cable. I don't watch tv that much, and when I do feel like watching, I like being able to just flip channels. Soon all this cutting the cord to save money will end up being the same price (or more if you still have cable and all these subscriptions).

Well according to a few reaction vid people I occasionally check on when red went into effect they didn't get the hits they used to, and now they have to have shitty offers and talk about it at the start of the video. The one person even started going over to a different platform and doing other things to make up for profit lost. I'd find it funny too. Some of the small time people I did watch got so upset by it because it was their main job, and they were hoping to get rich off it. lol at you guys.

I hate that too. Anymore I have to wait about it until there are several shows worth watching and then pay for a month to catch up. My weakness is the original series. Like all the Marvel stuff on Netflix, Handmaid's Tale on Hulu, The Zelda Fitzgerald one on Amazon, etc. tbh Cable will probably be cheaper eventually or depending upon what packages you get w/ these services (ie upgraded HD netflix, commercial less Hulu, etc). The only thing you'll miss out on is the original series. tbh Netflix seems like it's dying anyways from stupid choices. That's my biggest fear is that people will run to Red w/ Netflix failing. That and now Red is going to have special concerts and they are trying to line up series.

Ohh, did Red go into effect at the time that a ton of Youtubers were complaining about losing views? I can't feel bad for react people. It's not hard content to make. Youtube's one of the only sites that shares ad revenue, and I can't think of any Youtuber I watch who's making content so vital that it needs to keep going. The big Youtubers I watch have connections and can continue to make money with sponsorships and using other platforms, while the small ones make maybe $10 from Youtube, so it wouldn't hurt them. Honestly, I think the content would improve if the revenue sharing went away.

Yeah, Netflix and sites are convenient when they have something I want to watch, but oftentimes I can find it elsewhere online or can rent it from my library. It's just if it's there, it's more convenient. I feel like initially original content is a boon for these sites, but they eventually manage to screw it up (like Netflix's quality going down or Amazon not renewing shows). I haven't bothered with Hulu in years since my adblocker doesn't work on their site, and I'm not willing to sit through that many ads for online content. I just choose to miss out.

I don't think people will run to Red b/c it lacks name recognition among older people and younger people are more likely to not have the money, to already use adblocker, and to be a part of a fandom that's willing to download and circulate the content behind the paywall.

Yeah it was just starting up at that time. I think Youtube also did something stupid and screwed everyone over, even the big people, and everyone was up in arms. I think it was marking things as adult and videos were not showing up in searches. The person I watched made enough money (before red) to not have to work, so idk how much money they were making because they live in a huge expensive city. I mean I guess I call them small but they have around 500k+ followers. But I guess I consider that small compared to the big people. And it's not like people know them when you talk about them compared to Youtubers like Zoella, Miranda Sings, Hannah Hart, etc.

My library takes forever to get anything to you, and most of the time it's so wrecked it won't play. Especially if it's an older release. We also have one TV in the house so I watch everything online. That why some of these sites are convenient for me. But yeah, paying for each site all the time. Not going to happen. In a perfect world I'd love all to fail and merge as one. But the price would end up astronomical then.

idk I see so many parents bankroll kids anymore. I mean parents are buying kids $200 dollar and up for tickets to see BTS & Exo. And that's crazy to me. But I come from a different generation. I think the thing with Youtube Red is they are trying to get familiar producers and writers (they are currently trying to get the people who wrote netflix the crown) and it seems like they are producing shows similar to Netflix (some new show that's like black mirror). I think their hope is that if they create content like the other streaming services they can get people to jump. Or people will jump netflix as they are practically losing all their unorignal content to Hulu. If red ends up getting a marvel or dc series (now that hulu has one too) they'll def end up getting a following and being a contender.
