- pphysch 3y agoNetflix and Amazon are playing a different game than YouTube. They are playing the "we own (exclusive) rights to this or that content and sell access to it" game, which YouTube is not necessarily. The former platforms also didn't start out with their own production companies, but eventually needed them in order to synthesize more exclusive content. YouTube does not have a content quantity problem, if anything it has too much content which makes discoverability challenging (vs. the curated libraries of Netflix et al.)
- bdcravens 3y agoI probably spend more time watching Youtube each month than other platforms, and my wife watches a ton of vlogs. Perhaps we are atypical, but in our case, Premium is a good value.

- pests 3y agoYouTube creates content in the sense people upload videos with the sole intention of the royalties payment. Of which I believe they give back nearly half of adrev to. Without those payments many creators would not exist.
