What type of next gen media do you consume? This is just for a little brainstorming I'm doing. I'd love your guys input.
If you'd like to elaborate, I'd love to hear your reasoning for what you choose. And if you choose podcast, do you watch video podcasts?

I mostly listen to a few different podcasts while I run, on my way to work and while I do yard work. When I to do watch YouTube, it's usually small things, or as Jim stated, "taking the browns to the super bowl". My son has a YouTube channel so I try to keep up with that. Things that are Destiny related, I watch a little Twitch and YouTube when I can't play. Hope that helps.

I chose podcast and YouTube ( more YouTube than podcast). I started podcasting on my car commutes this winter when I could ride my motorcycle. And the only podcasts I started/found interesting at that time was the destiny podcasts haha. Though I know there are many other podcasts that interest me, I just don't have the time to listen to. YouTube has been a long time pull for me. Started with music stuff and funny videos of course when it first started. Now I find myself subscribed to a few destiny you tubers and lookup destiny crap to learn from. ( Man I do a lot of destiny hahaha) Twitch I have not gotten into and don't anticipate getting into for reasons as mentioned before me by sushi and Jim.

I really only actively chase (look for new and consume daily) podcasts. YouTube mostly only when someone shares a link. Very rarely I will use it to look for something (how to solo part of a raid). Twitch I tried but rarely am able to catch live viewing with my work and home life. Besides I don't see any point in watching someone I don't know play a game. I would much rather just play the game. Would never donate on twitch. Don't see why anyone would. I think whether you pay or not there will always be someone streaming right?

I chose podcast and YouTube due to the fact that they are easy to manage. Majority of YouTube vids are between 2 and 10 mins long. Something you can watch during a smoke break or even when you take the browns to the super bowl. Podcasts are the same you can just plug in your headphones and enjoy the madness. And continue about your day or drive or whatever. Things like twitch take too much commitment. You have to sit their ad watch live commentary. Commentary that often gets undermined by the concentration on a game or whatever you are streaming. Hope it helped for whatever project you are doing bud
