Make no mistake, YouTube is an entire side industry to Hollywood and much bigger than the traditional mediums of television and movie. Companies devoted solely to producing YouTube vids and trying to make viral videos - have a friend who has worked for a couple of them over in LA and even 1 million views for a video is a huge deal. It's definitely an exploitable industry and does happen. YouTube have complete control over top search matches and order displayed content, featured content etc. No doubt there's a pay off for investing in buying likes and views, but nowhere near striking it lucky with a niche that spreads like word of mouth.

A lot of those kids have had producers approach them and offer to manage etc., some of them have got where they are by having people invest in their character/personality.

Bieber is a good example - started uploading cover vids, got heaps of views, music producers took notice and got on board to invest in him.

but I want an aventador...

watch pandas in a zoo for hours on end until they do something cute. or maybe koalas except 20 hours of sleep a day would get boring. feed them caffeine or pingers or something.

yeah but smart youtubers put the ad inside the video itself, charging 10k per 100k views..

Shiiiiiiiiiiiet could've made 30k off my vid blowing my turbo /engine

Never knew dezz was a Triple J listener

I'm not, I can't put into words how much I hate that station

All tradies are JJJ listeners

No, only the bogan Aussies. Most site radios are on triple M with the odd fox/Nova here and there, all fox on Friday for rnb these days, apart from the triple j cocksuckers of course.

record hamish ranting about hipsters while drinking a skinny goats milk latte out of a jar = all the views, all the money, all the gay porn offers.

My god goats milk is heinous

    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn 
    • Sounds good, we will aim to be there! @The Bogan I'll give you a shout if you are heading up to campbelltown for the meet too.
    • Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
    • So 10/10 times that code is coil packs? I mean if that's the case ill drop the $400USD or so to replace them. I didn't know these cars threw codes before the issue became an issue.
