I have watched few utubers. I found it somewhat unproductive relative to the time dedicated to it. But I can understand why it's attractive to some and for them I would suggest that they not abandon 'critical analysis' when watching. I think that like the magazines, much of what they convey which might be negative is opaque. What I missed most was a lack of meaningful context.
Any Advice for those Listening to Youtube Reviewers?
I’d like to recognize that it takes a great set of self promotional skills to become successful in the Youtube world. That said most of the audio reviewers I’ve seen don’t have the experience to review, or the kind of space that would really allow gear to shine.
Most of them start of with K-Mart like gear, did their formula and got popular, and jumped far up the audio food chain. Of course everything they review is going to be great compared to the Service Merchandise system they sold last year.
Just throwing it out there that people should be careful listening to these guys that are mostly working for the views/money (not that some aren’t passionate).
Anyone else seeing this?
