What specifically do you watch on YouTube that’s comparable to the movies and scripted series on Netflix? I know YouTube Red has shows like ‘Cobra Kai’ but you seem to be referring to regular YouTube.

The point was to expand and diversify, so not exactly comparable.
But I was thinking of things like PBS spacetime, world science festival, royal institute lectures, and such.
We have a public service VOD-service here that hosts some content of that nature.
It shouldn’t be that hard though. Just keep a reasonably diverse catalog and give people tools to browse it.
Speaking of diverse, now a days I turn to YouTube when I want to watch something interesting. I wonder how much of that type of content they could add to their catalog.
Not specifically the random user generated content, way to much hassle, or “be amazed” crap, they have plenty of that already, but there are a lot high quality channels targeting some niche on the long tail.
