So 10 second clips of grainy 300x300 cat videos stolen from broadcast tv? If you think that is all that is on YouTube, you are sadly mistaken.

Again. Give me a break. YouTube has absolutely transformed content distribution for then independent producer. We’ve never had a better age for independent content.

I didn't say it wasn't better and I didn't say it didn't transform content distribution for the independent producer. What I said was

1.) there used to be a lot of niche video sites 2.) many of those sites are gone 3.) The standardization of YouTube is one of the reasons many of those sites are gone.

The first two are facts and the second is my opinion, but which of those things do you not agree with?

I can miss something and understand that what we have now is better overall.

Your last statement needs the standard smallprint: Some restrictions apply. See Terms and Conditions.

And actually T&C which can change on a whim and aren't even always transparently visible.
