Meh, it's already on YouTube and I don't have to pay for it.

I can already play it on the big screen at home using the Roku player and on my mobile devices.

There's not a lot of episodes on there. But what the berkeley, its a chance for normal people to see a decent car show.

I don't get this move though.

We host on Youtube? Ok

Start our own streaming service and host it there? Ok

Sell it to Netflix too? Sure why not.

The worst part is they appear to be doing it by seasons, so you get 15 episodes on Netflix and like 54 on Youtube now. Also worth noting is the other Motortrend Youtube shows are on Netflix as well now.

Hey if you can sell out to Netflix and double dip with youtube sponsored videos more power to you. I'll probably watch it on Netflix since I have subscription anyway and I have less problems streaming it to my TV.

The worst part is amazon now has E36 M3 loads of user generated content just like youtube and now youtube has tons of paywall content like amazon/netflix. Why cant they just do their thing (netflix/Amazon pay, Youtube Free). It makes both frustrating to use because I have to sort through videos of adults playing with/unboxing toys or "responding" to watching shows when my kids want to watch octonauts or paw patrol.

I was excited to watch it on the T.V. instead of the computer or tablet.

And it's far better than any other car-centric show I've found on netflix, hulu or amazon prime.

Underdogs was decent but nearly everything else I've tried to watch has been E36 M3.

Just connect laptop to TV. Why is this so hard?

Even most smart phones or tablets can be adapted to a DVI or HDMI input or even an analog video.

I tried to watch underdogs but couldn't make it very far into the first episode.

There's a few new car shows on Netflix recently. Head2Head, Roadkill, Epic Drives...

I've been watching it on Netflix. My wife has actually been enjoying it too. I've watched a few episodes on Youtube but I just never seem to go to the youtubes for content when I sit down in front of the TV even though I've got a PC built for streaming and I'm hitting Netflix and Amazon prime for shows...I dunno why. I've watched every episode on NF now, so I guess I'll be heading to YT now though.

I don't understand why people are wound up about this.

Roadkill on Netflix is good. It means more people are going to watch it because not everyone goes looking for content on YouTube. It's still available on YouTube for those who like the big mess. Everybody wins.

I can stream YouTube videos to my TV. But Netflix is easier, better integrated and remembers my playback position. So I would choose to watch via Netflix given the choice.
