The dark future of Youtube

Yes. That's the inevitable fate of all the websites- they will rise and eventually will fall - much like what's happening to facebook now. But as of the moment, youtube is still faring fine when it comes to video sharing. Let's just hope that whenever a new video streaming website rises, it will be better than youtube.

Yeah actually i really hate the "not available in your area/country" kinda message. It just makes me so mad. And once a new video is released, we can't see them till a few days late. It really feels like discrimination And I have no idea why everything should be viewed by Vevo these days, so annoying!!

I think they are restricting for security reasons. I do think it is already becoming less popular too.

hello, I think so? Because they already implemented it to many people and if they will not continue it because of their popularity. I think that is not that good as it is. hmm I mean they should continue doing their rules because people know about that and besides there is nothing about there rules at all.

Maybe yes, but as a user we always can go to other video sharing website with less restrictions and i think this restrictions in youtube can be good for other video sharing website because now people are spread to alternative video sharing websites. Maybe it's only bad for youtube employees.

YES!!!

I don't really like the copyright restrictions because it means that I can't post the video review I was planning to do because it had clips from some anime and I know if I put the full version up there, the company that owns the copyright will DMCA me, so I understand everyone's frustration in that regard, but I don't think it's right for everyone to upload full episodes of their favorite TV show or full movie either.

Youtube is a gift for those who want to express their talent in the form of video. It is a viral market where everything can be found. Youtube is mainly used by youngsters who are interested in teh field of music. They are just uploading their creating work and uploading which is getting lots of comments and thereby giving them fame. Youtube if used in the right way! It will be good.

youtube lives because of plenty of users access their url sites... if the seems that too much restriction and few users access their site, they will immediately loosen it to bring it back to normal i think....

Yes. Before people could freely upload anime AMVS and more anime episodes. This also includes for movies, tv shows, etc. Right now youtube doesn't allow it's users to upload much music due to copyright. Most videos uploaded right now must be homemade. Homemade videos are really boring no offense. Even if it's funny, nice, controversial it's still dumb. So in a a dark dark not so far future youtube will end up being a boring list filled with Shane Dawson copycats. Then again isn't Shane himself a copycat? Not saying this type of videos are bad but that's only for boring teenagers who have no time for anything to do...

I believe YouTube will always be a favourite, and the popularity will only rise. However, I agree that restrictions they have implemented may have scared off users of the YouTube website.

It might remain as a favorite to some but not all. Maybe a lot of people are still enjoying watching videos from youtube. But the restrictions also made the site itself to lose viewers. So it's fifty-fifty for me.

yes i think the restriciton will get even more tighter .. the reason is simple that the users can have a lot of freedom but on the other hand it can violate copyright or the security of a country .. so the best thing is that the government should control such websites .. remember : it is a very good source of information for people like us
