This is kind of old news (well.... I'm a few months late on this). I haven't watched Classic Game Room in a while, but I just found out that Mark Bussler has moved his show off of the YouTube platform to Amazon. It's a bummer, but at least the show will still go on.
Mark has some gripes with YouTube (mostly with copyright issues). He's made an interesting point about how YouTube content has dramatically changed over the years, by stating that the common method of maximizing views or recognition is by creating click-beat titled videos (which thankfully Mark said he would never do, because click bait is absolute garbage and YouTube is over saturated with this crap). Classic Game Room is more old school with how they create their content, which unfortunately just doesn't get the amount of attention these days. If I were to guess the target audience of his videos, I would say it's late gen-x's to early millennials. Youtube Interview:
I wish Mark all the best with running Classic Game Room 2085!

YouTube platform to Amazon. Amazon? Like Amazon Prime? Do they provide the same kind of video upload service that Youtube does? Also this isn't the first time I've heard people getting shafted by youtube. I get worried every once in a while that my daily podcast favorites are going to migrate elsewhere. I've never had any trouble with youtube when I was doing WXR, but I'm not interested in monetizing my videos and/or making my viewers have to sit through ads to see them. So I don't really have anything to lose.
