Why Do You Watch Linus?

I've noticed that as LTT has started to grow exponentially, Linus has been trying to figure out exactly why people watch his videos, so that he knows what content we want. I was wondering why people watch too, so what I want you guys to do is say which videos of Linus you watch/ not watch and why? Also, why do you watch Linus in general?

- "Yes the 8990 is more fater than the 4820K and as you can see this specific Video card comes with 6GB" ~ Alienware 2014

I'm mostly forum. I skim upload and watch anything that sounds interesting if it manages to hit my sub box. Otherwise I cull through his uploads once a week or so.

I don't really bother with the WAN show anymore either, usually skim it on youtube. 9

I always check if there is a Linus video when I am purchasing a new technology.

 

I generally watch Linus's videos to stay up to date with the latest consumer hardware. I would love to see videos on professional equipment but that is obviously not viable.

 

I also selected to learn about computers, since I watched hundreds of hours of Linus when I built my first computer. I wanted to know what to purchase, and why I wanted it.

 

I enjoy the funny/silly skits that Linus puts into some videos, but I consider them a bonus rather than the reason I watch.

I only watch them if he has done a video on something im thinking of buying.

 

Its easier than reading a couple of pages on various shopping websites or benchmarking sites.

Inappropriate innuendos.

The stone cannot know why the chisel cleaves it; the iron cannot know why the fire scorches it. When thy life is cleft and scorched, when death and despair leap at thee, beat not thy breast and curse thy evil fate, but thank the Builder for the trials that shape thee.

The way he explains even the crappy products like in so good of a way,  the video transisions , slo mo closeup product shots , in depth reviews in a jiffy ,it's like watching a quality movie B) ,

 

But i do like to see him do something like the OC3D's video review sometime, which is boring somewhat , but it's just interesting to watch really really lengthy indepth review of something , since we are watching it for 'our kind' of review for a future buy .
