I got a life time subscription when it first launched, thinking if it was still around in 3 years the subscription would have paid for itself self. I am a fan of Wendover and a few of the other creators so it was a good investment for me. The ability to find new content is lacking though, the only reason why I still have a gmail account is because I use Unwatched on my iPhone and iPad to watch my YouTube algorithm.
Yeah, i heard they have no alghoritm. But to me is ok. I just really want to get rid of youtube, but the only thing keeping me there is game trailers.
Don’t worry soon those will go away, with the death of physical media why would they bother advertising on youtube when they can just advertise on their store’s webpage. Sure Microslop backed down (a little) when they tried killing physical, but Nintendo has not and Sony is already retooling its centres that printed disks. You will pay for stuff but not own it and you will be happy about it!
Just remember: If buying is not owning piracy is not stealing!
