Watcher Entertainment, initially building its viewership on YouTube with over 400 million views, has announced its transition to a subscription-based streaming service. The company plans to remove all its original unscripted content from YouTube and offer it exclusively on its new platform. This move has sparked significant backlash from its fanbase, leading to a response from the company. Watcher Entertainment, led by founders Steven Lim and Ryan Bergara, has decided to make new content available for free on YouTube one month after its initial release on the paid service. The subscription costs are set at $5.99 monthly or $59.99 annually.
