00:00Hello and welcome to Manchester World. My name is Theo Custon-Bertz and today I'm out on the streets of Manchester
00:03talking to people about media and the way that it's consumed now online and that's because
00:08YouTube has become the second most watched media platform in the world. We want to know
00:12what people watch most and why they choose that kind of content too. So let's go out
00:18and see what people have to say. I always look at actual videos because I really like cars,
00:25fashion, skateboarding, whatever. So I tend to watch full-length videos a lot of the time and
00:31what I really like about YouTube is that you can just find the thing that you want to watch
00:37most of the time, right? On a full, like it is a video-based platform, like it's longer, it's not
00:45like some short, snippy, easily digestible things, so it means that people are still actually putting
00:50time. But I think it's great because, yeah, you can jump right into what you want to watch.
00:55I think it's, yeah, you know, from a hobby perspective.
