RE: 3000 Subscribers On YouTube (Still Not Monetized After 8 Months)

in #youtube6 years ago

Youtube is not dead, while we all have complaints about Youtube as soon as someone leave there's a flurry of new people waiting to take their place despite the long waits and everything else. I feel for Brian and yeah it's super frustrating but Youtube has such a head start on every other video platform out there. Competitors like VidMe have come and gone, nobody else can really manage to even come up with a decent competitor. While DTube is cool lets be honest there's nowhere near the number of users, nowhere near the wide array of content, etc.

I think InstaTV may be able to give them a run for their money but ultimeatley I don't think they will win out over Youtube. InstaTV also isn't going to be doing monetization at least initially which I think isn't a smart move. If you wanna win over creators you gotta let them earn

Sort:  

No, ThemTube is dead.

I have watched this several times.

Your premise is that there are no competitors, how could it fail?
I know of two competitors, one and two steps into the future, that will blow away ThemTube with advanced technology.

Now, ThemTube will still be around, just like FOXCNNABCBS are.
They are owned by the same people who will pay any amount of money to try to maintain control of everything you see. However, their actual viewer share is plummeting.

And big name ThemTube producers are looking for a way out.
And with up and coming content creators being stifled, a new outlet will be formed. (it is the law of the universe)

So, ThemTube is dead

I'd be willing to bet 24 months or 2 years from now Youtube is still the king of video by a longshot. Believe me, I hope I'm wrong, I'd love for another competitor to step up but Vimeo isn't really even the same type of platform, Twitter tried video and letting video creators monetize that was a flop, InstaTV may do well but I don't think it will be the same experience, VidMe tried and went under, DTube is cool but nowhere near the amount of content, the userbase or the refined algorithm. I hope your right but I don't think so
