Its cheaper and doesn't follow the same tired formulas.

I personally figured this out when I pissed my girlfriend off by correctly guessing the entire plot to last christmas 2019.

I mean it's often just 20 second snippets or game reviews or asinine nerd-political gaming commentary? A ton of it is very formulaic.

I consume both and internet content is, in my opinion, MORE formulaic than scripted shows and movies.
