Darko Audio: Let's End the Cost Videos


Ok, I have complete respect for John Darko and the amount of work and professionalism he invests in his craft. But if I see another video or comment where he brings up "It's one's right to spend what one sees fit on gear, etc," I am going to scream. Yes, WE GET IT, John! No need to keep kicking this horse, which has been dead for literally 3 years.

He has a target audience. It may not be you, but he is excellent for the audience he is aiming towards. That said, I am certain he gets pummeled constantly by viewers who are envious of others means. It's likely incessant. 

@ericrhodes1 I am not sure who his target audience is. It is probably close to Andrew Robinson’s. He is an entertainer.. Budget-wise I am his target audience, with my limited funds. And yes, as @hilde45 said, he has a schtick. He is likeable, relatable, personable. He is also a giant at 6’7" which makes him vulnerable, the way he handles it...

The weird part is his podcasts. He is good at talking to the camera. He is pretty bad at interacting with people. He talks over them. I guess interviewing is a skill. 

Darko and Andrew Robinson probably attract the highest volume of new blood to audiophilia on YouTube (initial gateway).

You probably need to make such statements constantly with the fresh blood...they all start out very suspicious about spending, in general..
