Will I pay for YouTube Red? (No, it's just extremely unjust to the YouTube community)

YouTube Red which provides exclusives for a price...........simply outrageous.

   The dream of having no advertisements on YouTube has become a reality due to the release of YouTube Red. The only issue with this is that it costs $9.99 per month and it also has exclusive content from famous YouTubers. There are many reasons why this is not good and contributes to the reason why YouTube Red isn't worth the price.

What YouTube Red was created for...........

   Overall, YouTube has always provided people with some interesting videos to watch for fun, to gain knowledge, to freak us out, or give us new insights to video games and movies for no cost. I really enjoy watching videos produced by Pewdiepie and the Fine Brothers for free since they are very humorous to watch. Due to YouTube Red, I feel like paying $9.99 per month to watch their videos is ridiculous. Its unfair that YouTube Red gives people who pay for it extra videos from YouTubers that were once free. Money doesn't grow on trees so there are only a few fortunate folks who have the money to pay for a year of YouTube Red. The rest of us are left to feel like we don't deserve to watch these special videos. YouTube is a place where creators show their ideas in videos about topics for anyone with or without a lot of money. Thanks to YouTube Red, many YouTube stars known for their creativity are going to be simply used to make "original" videos produced by YouTube and not themselves. YouTube was always known as a place where anyone can watch good creative videos from the views of the actual ideas of the YouTubers without the cost of a penny (except for your device of course).  Now, they are greedily using the talents and fame of YouTubers to gain them profit from their fans. They think that since people are extremely devoted to watching videos from these stars, they can easily put a price tag on them and will receive cash from YouTuber fans to watch more of them.

Sorry but thumbs down React Channel for agreeing to exclusive content on YouTube Red

Basically YouTube is turning into Netflix where you have to pay to watch videos and shows. Ten dollars is simply an outrageous price to put on videos that used to be available for free to everyone every month. This is the worst decision this well-known company has ever made and I hope that it is its last. $9.99 is worth more than advertisement-free YouTube with exclusive content. Advertisements are actually pretty interesting and there is always the skip ad button on advertisements on YouTube. YouTube Red is clearly marketed towards impatient people with a lot of money to spend. Therefore, that's why in my opinion, I believe that YouTube Red is not worth $9.99 per year.

The future of YouTube .....

Television Dying (Yes and No)

Television Dying (Yes and No)

   Ever since cable television was introduced to Canada in 1952, it has remained popular for decades. It was superior to home radios and replaced them in many households. Due to the introduction of the Internet in 1989, cable television began to have some serious competition. One of the major flaws in cable television was the amount of advertising in commercials that would range from five to twenty minutes in between parts of shows. They replay the same commercials over and over again wasting time for people who want to finish a show before going to work. The internet on the other hand has a very similar problem. When you want to watch some videos on YouTube, there will always be some random commercial that you can't skip. These issues do drive me insane but throughout my life, I've lived watching cable television.   
Whenever I wake up in the morning, I watch CP24 to know what's going on in the city.

  From the age of three to six , I tended to watch my favourite television shows at the time which were the Teletubbies, Barney and Friends, and Mister Roger's Neighbourhood. As I got older, I began to watch some other notable shows like Inspector Gadget, Bill Nye the Science Guy, the Magic School Bus, and Arthur. Nowadays, I wake up every morning and watch CP24 to know what's going on each day as well as watching shows like Doctor Who, The Walking Dead, and The Big Bang Theory. I feel like even though we have the technology to watch shows without commercials like Shomi, Netflix, and YouTube; they will never be the same as live television shows. I enjoy watching the news live as I watch reporters interview folks live as well as giving coverage of major current events in the world. I enjoy watching major events like the federal elections, sports games, live concerts, gameshows, and contests live on my television. I used to enjoy watching movies on television but now I can watch any movie for free using putlocker.com. Now I tend to be more of a gamer playing popular games on my consoles in my free time. In my family, we barely use Rogers on Demand and we tend to still use cable television to watch our programs.



Childhood memories..... It's a wonderful day in the neighbourhood.......

Overall, even as technology advances, there will always be a few flaws with some of these commercial-free channel providers like freezing or skipping scenes. The same flaws will occasionally happen to cable television as well. I believe that for many people born in the following years, the life of cable television will die out for them as they will experience the internet in the forms of computers and tablets. For those who have grown with television however, cable television will still be watched. As for myself, I will always watch cable television no matter how good commercial-free technology gets. There won't be an end on the way for cable television in the next decade since even though it may seem outdated  to most of the newcomers to the 21st century, it will always be enjoyed by anyone no matter what age or time they were from.
