The fine brothers
 

What do you all think about that whole situation?

If you are unfamiliar http://mashable.com/2016/01/28/the-f...hers-backlash/ and want to see what it's about.

I think they worded what they were trying to say incorrectly. I don't think they deserve all of the hate, but then again I'm not necessarily all on their side with what they're trying to do I suppose.

Busy with my popcorn.

Not a fan of them anymore. It seems like they want an internet monopoly of the whole "react" thing. They even went after Ellen because she showed some kids a few pieces of old technology on her show. The branded thing is a good idea, where you can collaborate with them and share revenue and blah blah. That's good and all. However, when they told their viewers not to support channels with a similar format to them I think a lot of people weren't cool with that.

I'm sure they did it for publicity

lol thats actually pretty funny.

It's perfectly justified to be worried, but they have already said exactly what they are doing. They aren't making it so people can't make reaction videos. They are just protecting their brand.

Amazing how people expect The Fine Brothers and other Youtube celebrities to hold up a standard that the majority of people would never follow.

*uploads video clip of paint drying, titled "cis-9,cis-12-octadecadienoic acid reacts to oxygen for the very first time"*
*watches as video gets taken down by the Fine Brothers for copyright infringement*

Not a fan anymore, Became too greedy and Looks like the people who are reacting are now being paid. How? To fake reactions, I feel like it was genuine anymore because I just feel like it now, Not meaning this applies to anyone, just me. :)

i go up and down with this, one minute im like oh maybe they're just passionate video makers who made a mistake, then I think wait the update video is basically 'oh we thought u guys were smart enough to understand but ur not so here's basically what we said'

The things they've done in the past as well, I understand protecting a brand and all but really? getting mad at ellen degeneres because she did a similar thing to you then telling your fans to boycott her show/spam her FB page? Filing copyright against some guy with 8 subs because he did a 'react' video??

I don't know if he understands the concept of the internet
Or just youtube in general

One does not simply own a gendre

This is my favorite comment on that video, and holy **** they are patronizing as hell in the video.

The way they said it makes it sound like a ****ty Machinima program for reaction channels.

I trademarked the word Kids, Teens, and To, so I can sue them :3
