    Is preserving the bitrate/quality of a youtube movie really that important? Did they upload anything not available in much, much better quality elsewhere?

        I’ll admit I asked that question before looking at the list. After looking, it only further cemented my pre-conceived notion that the youtube release is absolute trash.

        A mere 36 movies, and based on titles, most if not all readily available from higher quality sources. None of them seem particularly obscure, as I recognize several actors’ names and I’m not the type to care too much about who plays who.

        I mean, hey, if youtube rips are your jam, go for it people. But for those looking for quality/obscurity, you’d probably have better luck elsewhere.

    Are these real movies?? I see all famous actors, but don’t recognize a single film! Like they’ve been generated with AI. lol

      I mean I’ve heard of some of these or seen them once, and these are likely movies that streaming platforms don’t care about. YouTube and other free with ad platforms is the best way to make any more money from them.

      My assumption is people will see The Avengers Full Movie and watch enough to consider it a play which will account for 90% of the revenue.

        I’m not sure what the OC is talking about, a number of these are classics (or at least known for one reason or another - Pluto Nash).
