    It’s the difference between entertainment and information. Gamer’s Nexus is less entertaining when they recite statistics number by number, and so they have less viewers, because people prefer poor information but with an entertaining presentation, rather than the opposite.

    Kinda like Top Gear used to be, they had some valid information but they could bend it if it meant the show would be more entertaining.

      I don’t see how information couldn’t be entertaining haha Maybe the point is more about attention spans and there being a fall off in the number of people you can reach with lengthening of the required attention span.
