I enjoy certain things on YouTube and check videos out at my leisure, things like, Pop Goes The 60's with Matt Williamson, which is excellent and very intelligently done. I also find certain drumming videos helpful, if they are accurate and well made.
Lately though, many of the videos I've clicked on are complete trash. Just now, I turned on a video by some idiot going on and on for 12:05 about how singer Joe Lynn Turner has stopped wearing a wig and has taken new bald publicity photos. Turner has alopecia, which the host described as, "Will Smith's wife's disease." Of course, the comments are turned off, preventing anybody from telling him what an asshat he is.
Another video concerned air show disasters, but whoever made it didn't use any film clips of the actual plane crashes. Instead, he used ancient footage of the Hindenburg blowing up, and stock footage elsewhere that had nothing to do with the video's subject.
Then, there are the "Celebrity Net Worth" videos, that usually show the subject of the video with a very busty woman, whose attributes have been Photo Shopped to be huge. Someone did this to Stevie Nicks, and made her look like she's a 44DDD.
Maybe it's a foregone conclusion that there's a lot of garbage on YouTube, but it seems to have gotten worse lately.
