    I think this says more about the dross you watch than anything else. Surely you’re not going to argue that someone like Tom Scott, Project Farm, or Torque Test Channel don’t add something of value to the world?

      No I’m subscribed to Tom Scott and Project Farm in fact! Unfortunately I feel useful stuff like that is in the minority on YouTube. Try looking at the top videos on a guest account. That’s all the crap I’m referring to. A lot of mindless drivel

        Sure, but that’s the case with any type of entertainment. Half of any bestsellers list is either smut, or something like Jack Reacher novels. The Office is one of the most watched TV series ever, and it’s hardly high brow entertainment.
