Hello!
Another quick discussion topic that came to mind. I have my own personal opinions on this but I am interested to see what other people think of the concept.
What do people think about Celebrities that gained fame and fortune elsewhere, to then bring their following and start a YouTube channel overnight? No matter what kind of content they make, I almost see it as a money grab of sorts?
Examples could be Chandler Riggs from The Walking Dead or more recently (and currently being advertised) Jack Whitehall.
Is YouTube trying to use YouTube RED to attract famous creators?
Are they perhaps trying to now compete with Netflix and monetize their content for viewers (i.e - pay to view, like Netflix?)
Thoughts?
