I make no judgement. Parent post said you don't get serial content on youtube, and that's just false. You do. If you like watching Minecraft it's great - there are thousands of hours on YouTube. FWIW Once you start watching something YT tends to recommend more of the same. Watching this "World's smallest v12 engine" video leads me to more engine engineering videos, no Minecraft in sight. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m3KdpzL3Hkk |

By episodic TV I mean drama, comedy, traditional TV format. Stuff that people are prepared to pay for (see netflix et al.)
Broadcasting sports is super cheap, and has little value for anything other than tier 1 events. (the expense is the rights management, something that games broadcasting has yet to really encounter.) Also note that like I said, its a niche thing, which limits its profitability. Niches always exist.
Also note the profitable. Channel4 in the UK used to deliver its catchup TV via youtube. Despite the heavy promoting it failed to get more than a few hundred thousand views across the entire library.
