It really bothers me when niche YouTubers slow down their content to a trickle but have time for podcasts and unrelated shit. If you are expecting money from people, you should keep your product consistent. That's just supply and demand.
Rap Critic from Channel Awesome is the epitome of this. He charges fifty dollars on Patreon for a custom "review," puts out barely anything on his channel except for those paid reviews, and for their fifty dollars the poor patron gets a five or six minute video with almost no real content or "criticism". His recent video on "Parents Don't Understand" was almost nothing but him talking about the plot of the song and a bit of ass-kissing for DJ Jazzy Jeff. Oh, but check out his podcast, and his radio show, and his new movie podcast, and subscribe to his channel, and give him Patreonbux!
YMS isn't totally "niche," but he isn't putting out long reviews like Cyberbully or Amusement anymore, he's just doing glorified quickies and Sardonicast. Does anyone really care about his music? From the snippets I've heard at the end of his videos, he has a really weak, bad voice for singing and while he still can carry a tune the lyrics are emo or geeky. No idea how he got a song in Rock Band/Guitar Hero/whatever.
