you are absolutely right : too many YTubers relied on support of their fan while brands are having free work.

Anthony, love your honesty in this video. You're an inspiration to me even though you don't shoot Sony (jokes aside). It was great following you this past year and you definitely deserve a lot more followers based off of your personality and production value.

Anthony man this is such a great video. Your authenticity comes through in each video you make but especially this one. I had no clue you only started your channel a year ago-you are polished and add so much to the community. I’ve learned a ton (especially about the S5II!) because of you and I just want to say, keep going and keep contributing because you really are helping people. I’ve had a lot of the same feelings about wanting to get more active on KZbin because KZbin has given so much to me, so it’s way cool to see someone who has acted on those same feelings and has had a great first year. Thanks again and can’t wait to see what you continue to create!

Beautiful vid man, you're such a comfortable and natural presenter and it's so interesting to hear you talk about this stuff. Totally agree on getting brands to pay up, I think most people get over that initial excitement of making brand videos and realise how much work it involves.

I applaud your comments about KZbinr's promoting products in return for keeping them. I have been saying this for so long and I am glad to hear someone echoing my words. I have three time got involved with manufacturers and only once did I specifically agree to having the item sent to me. The one company that I agreed to having their product were wonderful. They waited nearly a year for the video with pressuring me just the odd polite email. From the other two companies, the emails keep coming and I just ignore them. In fact one company had the audacity to say they would black list me if I did not do a review. In response I said that as I did not think they would send me any more items so what did I care if they black listed me. It also shocks me how some really good filmmakers have now sold their souls to manufacturers and will say wonderful things about a rubbish product and unfortunately they no longer do what they are good at making films. KZbin to me is a place to show my programmes and that is the way it will continue. Some will get good views others will not but it does keep me doing what I have always done, both in and out of television, programme making.

I think you are confusing the term "clickbait" with what marketing actually brings to sales. Let me give you an example. If the title of your video is "Panasonic's best feature that other cameras don't have". I'll click on it and after 15 min of watching the video it will turn out that Canon, Sony etc. have such a feature. Then you have caught me with "clickbait", you have wasted my 15 min of life :))) Today I end up revoking my subscription and blocking your channel. Sorry, but you're swimming in a sea full of fish and I can easily find ones that don't do that to me. Of course, this is just an example. I like your channel, although not yet enough to subscribe. Good luck to you.
@AnthonyRodriguezz7 ай бұрын
Your example is actually referred to as “lying” and couldn’t be more antithetical to what I was describing in the video It’s like those billboards that say “Your Wife Is Hot” and it’s for an AC company. If a small misinterpretation causes you to unsubscribe and block my channel… idk what to tell you 🤷🏽♂️ Im sure you can find somebody else in this sea of KZbinrs that agrees with every pov you have 😉

@@AnthonyRodriguezz Wooo.. man, hold your horses :))) Read carefully what I wrote. "Of course, this is just an example. I like your channel, although not yet enough to subscribe. Good luck to you." Nowhere did I write that I revoked the subscription. I gave an example of when I revoke and ban. I agree with you that "clickbait" is a synonym for "lie". That's exactly right, you yourself said in the material that "clickbait" is simply marketing and that's how it sells. No, that's how you lose customers. Once again, greetings and good luck.

You wrote “Today I revoke my subscription and block you channel” Which made it confusing with your last statement. Might be a language barrier but the way it was written definitely made it seem like it was directed towards me. Sorry for the defensive attitude!
