    So you have basically stopped showcasing the unique brilliant videos, because all the ones that will be 'Spotlighted' will need to have a few other videos with the same idea.

    How to take credit away from originality!

    I wish you stop changing everything! If you're going to be HuluTube then I might think about leaving if it's only going to be a US site. Hulu's fucking crap so what's the point? Nobody gives a fuck about updates!! Listen to US not yourselves!!!

    Dear God. Who's the idiot on your board you always listen to? YouTube does NOT need to be more soulless and corporate.
    And, why on EARTH would you just change a little design for no reason whatsoever? It's as if you guys are trying (and hard!) to make the site less convenient.

    Oh, Jesus. And it's not even truly customizable. I mean, if you're going to turn the featured section into nothing more than a constant, random stream of promotional GARBAGE, why not at least give us the option to view it up to down, as opposed to this barbaric left to right scheme that you just changed it to for no apparent reason.

    Oh God they were right.

    It's turning into Hulu Tube.

    Listen guys, YouTube is an amazing thing, it has a culture of it's own but you're slowly eradicating this culture and replacing it with big companies giving you nice wads of cash.

    Please YouTube, you're doing it WRONG!

    So if I decided to partner my company up with YouTube, would that make me an evil corporation? I mean, come on, the minute you log into you have a chance to customize it. Jeeze.

    Anyway, http://www.youtube.com/user/Dexterboy124 <- that guy's video made it to the top faved on the frontpage, and he isn't even an partner.

    I like how YouTube used to be all about broadcasting yourself and purely for the users and now it's all about you lot making money. "Feature" content isn't actually featured content any more, just another load of bull for you lot to make some $$$... And the way Spotlight is now another form of advertisement is really letting it go.

    Well done for becoming another money grabbing website like the majority of them on the internet.

    Truly disappointing.

    YouTube is going down the goddamn drain. All the changes that were GOOD in any way disappeared after the introduction of the HD video feature. These days, it's all about YouTube making money and screwing over the people who helped make it popular in favour of big companies. Essential things are being ignored. Even the fucking video uploader isn't working properly; I've been uploading the same HD video for over 10 hours, failing EACH TIME. It actually worked when I uploaded a private HD test video, and then failed forever after. I wouldn't be surprised if YouTube was boycotted in the future.

    In fact reading the responses here and on other websites it's clear youtube are ignoring it's community and just ruining it's site.

    We don't want Disney, we don't want BBC features. I want to see community films, small independent people like it used to be.

    Oh well, if you want me I'll be at Vimeo, much better than YT now.

    I think it was a mistake changing the spotlight videos. Being 'featured' was a big part of the youtube experience and viewers could rely on finding an interesting user video on the homepage. With the new themed 'spotlight' users get less exposure as so far all I have seen is Britains got Talent, the news, and Earth day! Bring back the featured videos of the old times please when the best and most interesting user generated videos could be discovered on the homepage instead of just an excuse to advertise / promote something! I'm fine with all the ads and new tv shows etc just the featured videos going has made me sad!

    I find this no surprise and very dissapointing, what happened to being featured?

    You really have lost sight of what this site was about, community and user generated videos, now its about TV etc companies taking over.

    Broadcast Yourself (But you wont get seen so you will give up in the end so whats the point)

    What chance does a new user have now of getting popular on here?

    Losing the Featured or Spotlight video section was, in my opinion a mistake, I am sure you could have found room for it among all the other new stuff. I really hope you consider putting it back.

    Did you also know that according to the Youtube thing on Facebook, Britains got talent has it's own channel, but users who are from the UK cannot watch them.
