There are so many ways one could use YouTube. I probably don’t use it as much as a tech person would because I am not really that much into YouTube shows or anything like that. What I use YouTube for is just the basics. The main reason that I watch YouTube is for music. I have Pandora, and also Spotify but I do not have music synced to my phone. I don’t download music through iTunes, I actually don’t think I’ve ever had. I enjoy the music aspect I get from YouTube. I actually have no idea what YouTube red is. =/ I like the playlists on YouTube, for instance if I type in a specific song, after it’s over another one in the same genre will play. I use this while at work, I’ll sit in my office and listen to YouTube while I do my work. I’d rather YouTube over Pandora sometimes because I enjoy picking the exact song I want to listen to. The only thing I dislike is when I’m listening to it on my phone and can’t switch screens to open another app ( they should work on that ). That is the only downfall of YouTube on cellular devices. I also like watching music videos. My favorite are the live recordings of concerts, (ACDC), I think they are awesome, and I just love knowing that all I have to do is click a few buttons and they are right at my convenience.
I also use YouTube for audio books, which are a lifesaver for someone like me who is always driving. I listened to an audio book for one class and realized that I actually enjoyed listening to it. Obviously I would still prefer a regular book over an audio book, but I like the option to be able to listen to it on YouTube for when I really don’t have time to sit and read the whole thing. I like that most of them can be found on YouTube so I don’t have to purchase them, which is pretty cool. Every book I have tried to listen to I have found on YouTube.
Another way I use YouTube is for the outrageously cute and funny animal videos. I love cats so I use YouTube a lot for the super cute videos. I love the funny ones of baby animals doing funny things, or the kittens being fed by a bottle. TOO CUTE!!! I actually watched one the other day that came up and it was a baby sleeping on the bed and the family dog was covering the baby up with the blanket by his nose, it was the sweetest.
So that is what I use YouTube for, I have attached my playlist with my music videos and live concerts, my audio books and other cute animal videos. Overall I like YouTube and I enjoy the pleasure it gives me to be able to literally type in anything and what I want will pop up. The only thing they need to work on is the YouTube app for cell phones. It would be so much better if w could listen to YouTube in the background while scrolling through Facebook or Instagram,
