If they give bad products great reviews, they will soon lose many of those views/much of that money as people catch on. I watch a number of them, and maybe I'm naive, but I don't regard any of them as being shills or having started reviewing at K-Mart type of places. Perhaps we watch different reviewers. Hi-Fi magazines, on the other hand.....
Any Advice for those Listening to Youtube Reviewers?
I’d like to recognize that it takes a great set of self promotional skills to become successful in the Youtube world. That said most of the audio reviewers I’ve seen don’t have the experience to review, or the kind of space that would really allow gear to shine.
Most of them start of with K-Mart like gear, did their formula and got popular, and jumped far up the audio food chain. Of course everything they review is going to be great compared to the Service Merchandise system they sold last year.
Just throwing it out there that people should be careful listening to these guys that are mostly working for the views/money (not that some aren’t passionate).
Anyone else seeing this?
