One billion...

So, to the team @ LMG:

 

While all things youtube are usually celebrated around subscriber levels (although I remain sceptical of the meaning of subscribers for anything other than youtube's algorithm for advertising videos, and I don't know if you get better stats for subscriber views vs non-subscriber views) it looks like within 6 months you'll hit 1 billion views on your videos.

 

Considering the (relatively ;-) ) low click-baitiness of your videos and wide ranging themes that's got to be considered impressive.

 

Any thoughts on celebrations/meet ups/giveaways/a special series of 'Linus/Luke - Build me a PC!' prizes/video builds and what not?  Or is it just another stat that proves google makes waaaay more money from your videos than you do or some other depressingly cynical truth?

 

Yours nosey and bored now I've run out of backlog to watch... :)

They just had giveaway for 3 million subs. I don't think they see views as imortant. Views can be manufactured quite easily (auto-replay and so). Plus @nicklmg talked in one WAN show about how FB views are so bad to determine real viewership. As FB auto-plays most of videos when you scroll news feed, every time video starts playing it is counted as view.
