The fact that they want to TM a format and control the channels of who goes where and who is allowed is a scary thing itself, not to mention greedy. If they weren't trying to be like Hollywood and be more corporate like and controlling then they would simply allow YT to remain the wild west like it more or less is, their mentality is to simply TM and control things they feel they own and yet they don't. You don't own LP's just like you down own reaction videos because you cannot own how people react or what they react to just like you cannot own you watching someone playing a video game.
I was never subbed to them and only watched a few Elders react videos, but I strongly feel that they are going about this in one of the worst ways. I get that they want to expand, most Youtubers do when they get big enough, thing is the bigger they get the more corporate they become or they reach a point where they completely sell out and forget who they originally were or what made them unique.
Mankind, in its arrogance and self-delusion, must believe they are the mirrors to God in both their image and their power. If something shatters that mirror, then it must be totally destroyed.
