I hope this means that the episodes won't just be infomercials to sell BRS products like so many of the others videos are.
He said it’s not, and is solely reliant on private funding from the community. I guess we will see, but I know most people feel information should be free and don’t like to pay to see videos. But making videos does cost money and a lot of time.

yeah, I just kind of lose interest when I see a table full of "new stuff" they are trying to sell.

I get they depend on the sales, I just think there are better ways to advertise, like at the end of the Informational Video give a list of Equipment used. Those who are serious about reefing will pay attention to that also. And maybe refrain from pushing products that will be discontinued within a year (Aquamax ConeS skimmers for example).

$9/month plus ads? You must be joking.

That is more expensive than Netflix.

Can’t have it both ways for a successful channel. Either you pay and watch unadulterated content, or sponsors pay and you watch a long advertisement.

I just hope the first guest or first topic is not tropic Marin, we know what the products. Nothing against Lou but I prefer to hear new stuff. I like him and Elliot working together.

The first series will be helping new hobbyists setup a tank that will work 100/100 times. No product pushing or sales. Just pure information. Do this and be successful.
