I've not noticed more - I've always found plenty there, particularly old TV series too. I have an Amazon Firestick so I can watch YT on my TV

Yes Streaming wars!

And certain series also. A few on Amazon and Netflix where they only had 1 or 2 seasons and I found later seasons on Youtube or even Roku....

I have trouble watching films on YouTube. It doesn't feel like I'm watching a film. It feels like I'm watching a long YouTube video lol.

Unquestioned · 70-79, M

Most of the films I watch are on Tubi, it's got thousands of them and it's free.

I think it's because they absorbed some free streaming service if they're old ones

Is it a plan to kill Netflix?

The short answer is "Yes."

YT is doubling down on free ad-supported tv (fast) to increase their ad revenue, and they hope you'll watch these shows on your smart tv instead of Netflix (and on your phone instead of TikTok.)
