CD-Rs were more expensive than DVDRs because of RIAA lobbying to get a cut of every CDR sale since they were “only/mostly used for music piracy”. DVDRs did not have this tax on them.

The only type of “reaction” content I like is experts validating or refuting non-experts’ videos in their area of expertise. I think they add a lot of value to these platforms by promoting critical thinking and the value of experts.

Then again, I hate shorts, so I rarely see even those. So maybe I’m off base.
