RIP Youtube 2005 - 2016
Oh no now they're charging for adding, not restricting, features that have never existed before and giving you free Play Music at a discounted price.

as if there are people who don't use adblock

All shit

See first point
You're basically paying for an ad block and a bunch of hipster shows
It's been rip for a loooong time coming.
>>54746219
You forgot

"there's an app for that"

See point two
(also fuck them for intentionally leaving all this shit out)
>>54746094
To be honest google does not have much choice. People want to watch youtube for free without ads which is unsustainable. Google has to pay for the servers that run youtube, repairs/upgrades, and electrical bills. Since half the people out there are using ad-blockers they need an alternative form of revenue beside ads.
Not saying I would ever get youtube red but I totally understand why it came into existence. If this doesn't save youtube then nothing will.
I've had red since it came out (play music subscriber for two years)
It's nice, I don't like any of the exclusive content but not having to bother with an ad blocker is nice, kind of like how not having to download and organize music is nice
Sometimes it's just worth it to do something the legit legal way
>>54746094
what is youtube red supposed to be? 1 dollar for 3 months seems like a killer price if it's good enough.
>>54746272
You actually can do the background listening on mobile if you exit out of the browser as its loading
>>54746272
People still use Newpipe right? I use it, I just wish it wasnt so basic.
What year was the peak of Youtube?
06? 08?
>>54746353
'10
>>54746337
>1 dollar for 3 months
>seems like a killer price
Google is basically employing Crackdealing 101. The first hit is dirt cheap.
>>54746353
Jut in time when google bought it. They improved on the layout, made it a lot nicer than it used to be and it didn't have any of this gmail integration stuff or subscriptions.
When I saw this I first thought that YouTube was doing a porn subscription.
Then I remembered RedTube is a different website.
They really should have picked a different name.
>>54746353
Oh man, I remember when it looked like this. Thats bringing back some memories.
>>54746311
Surely they're making money from American TV networks, it's the only thing that would explain why my recommendations are all Jimmy Kimmel and Conan even though I'm British and have never watched them
>yfw in a few more years most of the internet will require subscribing to some microservice bullshit to view 'exclusive' content and get around ads
How many sites would implement this? Think of all the ads and retarded videos you see cluttering your facebook page these days and how they could easily implement some monthly fee so that you can get around them
>>54746393
>Surely they're making money from American TV networks, it's the only thing that would explain why my recommendations are all Jimmy Kimmel and Conan even though I'm British and have never watched them
kek well they do get sponsorships but most of the money they get comes from ads.
>>54746314
Nigga ad block is like 3 clicks to install and then you forget about it. Blocks ads on not only youtube, but every single site you visit, and it's free.

It won't. What will happen is piracy will grow out of control. If it can be viewed or heard then it can be pirated, no exceptions. With things like HEVC and generally more powerful laptop and desktop processors it's only a matter of time before the whole piracy gets out of control. By then the only way content creators (at least the music and video ones) will be able to make coin is if you buy their content online. What will start happening is content creators will start committing suicide en masse and people will start bitching about how there is no new content to watch/ listen to.
>How many sites would implement this? Think of all the ads and retarded videos you see cluttering your facebook page these days and how they could easily implement some monthly fee so that you can get around them
again piracy will get out of control by then so all this won't mean jack shit.
All we need is a tor site where people upload their magnet links to their torrents and paid mods to get the fire starting.

Sounds familiar
As long as Casey Neistat's content doesn't become premium i'm fine with it.
remember when youtube was about user uploaded videos? where literally anyone could potentially upload the next big thing?
those were the good days. yt is just the basic cable of the internet now.
>>54746423
They also sell your youtube videos to television. See: that guy whose game video was ripped off by Family Guy
>>54746563
>What will happen is piracy will grow out of control
Odd, because to me it feels like piracy is being cracked down upon more than back in the 2000-2010
>>54746311
>People want to watch youtube for free without ads which is unsustainable.
that will eventually lead to the death of youtube
this is a good thing
>>54746137
You mean like background multitasking of YouTube( a feature native in android taken away) and replaying streamed content (i.e. downloading videos;streaming is technically downloading)
>>54747019
True but streaming websites are fucking themselves by restricting content to certain countries and blocking VPNs. People will turn to piracy, it's inevitable.
In addition like I said as computers become more powerful people will start using HEVC more and more. You can already fit a better than yify 720p 2 hour movie in a ~1GB file if you use HEVC with the slow preset and a CRF of 22.
>2016
I think you mean 2010.
>>54747043
>that will eventually lead to the death of youtube
>this is a good thing
Perhaps this is for the best. Youtube went to shit ever since jewgle bought it anyway.
>>54746353
Either 07 or 08. After 09 things started turning to shit.
>>54746348
I do, it's getting a little better every update
>>54747062
hevc is still fucking ass
YIFY was fucking ass, the guy even said outright it was shit quality
265 needs 900mb to equal a 1300mb file if not slightly more, its fucking HORRIBLE when it comes to details.
>>54746272
>background listening for mobile
>offline viewing
All of that can be done purely in client-side software. Did they intentionally gimp Android to sell Youtube Red subscriptions?
>>54747019
Fact is despite the crackdowns people will start turning to piracy more and more. It will become harder to control and when your average normie gets 1gbps home internet + a powerful laptop/desktop it will be inevitable that more and more people will start pirating content.
See this is like the time when the US outlawed alcohol. At first it seemed to work but then it only fed to people getting booze illegally. There are simply some things that are never meant to be stopped.
Why I'm saying piracy will soon grow out of control is not because of the advanced video codecs and ever more powerful computers but because streaming and online content providers are making it extremely difficult for the average person to get the content they want and block VPNs to get around the country restriction thing. This shitty region blocking is what will lead people to start turning toward piracy more.
On the bright side at least for VPN companies, they are about to make a fuckton of money from this whole ordeal.
>>54746348
Using it right now in background, basic but still great
>>54747019
They're TRYING to stop it more than ever before, but they're failing miserably. Piracy is very much mainstream.
>>54747090
If you're someone like me however (someone who grew up in an era where HD wasn't common), you don't give a shit as long as you can see the content
>>54747062
The irony of more and more people getting faster connections only to download shittier and shittier quality rips. If anything I expected way more people to start routinely downloading full BDs once they hit 100mbps.
>>54747207
>If anything I expected way more people to start routinely downloading full BDs once they hit 100mbps.
hard drives have stopped getting cheaper on a dollars-per-terabyte basis is what happened
>>54747090
>hevc is still fucking ass
You're gravely mistaken. The latest 10-bit x265 encoder on builds.x265.eu can encode 720p video at like 12FPS on the fast preset. This is on my 2GHz quad-core AMD laptop. I can't imagine how fast it is on a desktop i7.
>YIFY was fucking ass, the guy even said outright it was shit quality
Yes but he also said that the target audience was people with limited internet connections (ie like 50% of the world) so it's okay. 1080p yify rips don't even look that bad on phones but the point is since HEVC is about twice as efficient as H264 a ~1GB 720 HEVC rip will have about twice the quality of a ~1GB 720p H264 which means better quality movies for the same compact yify size. People will like that.
>265 needs 900mb to equal a 1300mb file if not slightly more, its fucking HORRIBLE when it comes to details.
Not anymore. Latest encoder I mentioned above (may 26) has about 40% better compression efficiency compared to H264. I know because I encoded a 720p test clip at 2Mbps with H264 and that same clip at 1Mbps, 800Kbps, and 1.2Mbps with HEVC. The 1.2Mbps had the same visual quality as the 2Mbps H264 file.
HEVC is still unfortunately still not twice as efficient as H64 but it's getting pretty dam close.
>>54746353
The end of the YTP era was the end of YouTube, since the site itself was Poop.
>>54746667
It still is very user based, I think you're just way too nostalgic about old youtube.
>>54747249
And to think Australia is still broadcasting 1080i MPEG2 at ~6-8mbps (was upto 14mbps once, in ~2005...)
Imagine what we could be doing with 5mbps of HEVC...
>>54747163
I did, its ass.
Then again, i have a fast internet connection and 8tb storage left.
>>54747249
I know that was his target audience, Im just saying the dude even said so himself.
Last i checked was in april i think, it as a 1.2GB 264 file vs a 680mb 265 file, the 265 had massively worse fine details, like carvings on boots, small details and such, it really just looked like.. sorry.. YIFY Quality.
Sadly its getting harder to find 264 stuff, due to 265 taking so much less space which would be fine if the quality was there, but seems most encodes are either shit quality ones, or not updated ones if what youre saying is correct.
>>54747249
>fast preset
Found the problem. Unless you're encoding at at least "slower", your results are meaningless. "Fast" is for family videos, not serious releases.
has vessel been successful?
>>54746353
before jewgle bought them and started enforcing copyright infringement. you could pretty much find anything there.
now it's nothing more than a place for corporate shilling and retards making videos of themselves.

Why are you so bitter anon?
>>54747221
A 4 TB HGST external or any WD/HGST internal can reliably hold quite a few full BDs, even at 25 or 50 GB each. And even if you don't want to keep a full BD for everything you watch, there's no reason to forgo a BD-sourced encode that's at least 10-15Mbps for some 1 GB HEVC trash. You can even delete it after you watch it.
The problem is that SSDs became popular. They're great for the OS, but for media people stopped getting HDDs when they stopped coming with their computers.
>>54747565
I've never watched any of his videos, just looking at the titles of them on the youtube homepage gives me cancer
Also they're all fucking 20 minutes long kek
>>54746094
Firefox on Android supports background playback.
>>54747586
they're 8 minutes long at most. yeah i understand, the click bait titles are cancer and most of the time they don't really describe what goes on in the video. still, his vlogs are really interesting and he's a pretty genuine family man.
>>54747536
>No, now the userbase is lets plays and people blogging about their shitty lives.
That was also a significant portion of the old youtube, it's just that back then it was at least kind of "real", not like now where it's all very overproduced and scripted and everyone is shilling or at least telling you to "like favorite and subscribe :^))))" every 10 seconds and everyone is trying too hard to become the next big personality instead of just making videos for the fun of it.

JewTube has reached its endgame, now that everyone uses it as the defacto video host. In the lifecycle of internet companies, this is when a competitor arises to take out the monopoly.
What "new" content is even available? pewdiepie is all i need
>>54746571
TFW you realize AOL, RealPlayer, and cuecat were actually ahead of their time.
Just imagine a modern AOL browser with Facebook, YT, etc all the big shitsites built into it and accessed via keywords, especially spoken keywords. Faggots would be all over that.
>>54747722
No competitor can arise; it's too expensive to operate, and it's service concept is still wrapped in litigation.
Viacom v. Google / YouTube still isn't settled.
>>54746094
In order to provide YouTube red, Google removed background playback for play subscribers outside of the US. Now I cannot get background playback for YouTube at all on mobile, plus I can't get any of the YouTube red exclusive content.
>>54747742
>it's too expensive to operate
Facebook, Apple, Oracle, Yahoo, or any of those hungry vulture companies can and will take advantage of this
>>54747766

You know that your computer is HDCP compliant, right?
Know what that means?
In ten years you won't be able to freely install software on your machine, as you merely rent the right to use it from Microsoft or Apple.

You can use a xposed mod to play it in the background and block ads....for free...
Why there's still no some GNU/Youtube website?
If there exist plugins what take away ads on Youtube, why it isn't possible to make a site where you are able to browse Youtube and watch Youtube without ads for free?
>>54747062
Yeah like we did with anime from the very start, who in their right mind would pay for crunchy roll

>>54749264
Or just open YouTube in your browser and not use the fucking app. I use Firefox on my droid turbo in my car all the time and I can lock the screen without issue
Remember when google decided that people needed a google plus account to use youtube features and put comments? And everyone went mad, including big youtubers?
And look what happened. It didn't die. It's there, sitting still.
It will be there whether you like it or not. Whether millions of people like it or not. For it to die many, many normies would have to eat propaganda -daily- against using youtube. Otherwise they could charge and eventually people will buy their services.
>>54749267
Because youtube is not software, it's a service.
>>54747662
Xposed doesn't work on the LG G3 F400S @ Android 4.4.2.
