Love him or hate him, PewDiePie is influential in the video game industry. You Tube videos are some of the best advertising.

He makes fun videos that many people can enjoy. He also has a handsome face which I am sure helps him get more attention and he just seems like a genuine gamer that enjoys gaming. Nothing wrong with him being popular. Who would be more deserving?

Once again, people that have contributed more original content to YouTube. Heck, I was pretty satisfied when Smosh still had the top spot. There's tons of YouTubers that have done more, at least in my vision, to deserve that many subscribers. It's not hard to beat someone who keeps screaming around and earns millions of dollars. He won't stop being unoriginal.

Is your problem then that he is at the top? What if he had tons of subscribers but more "original" youtubers were above him, would that change anything?
