Ultimately this was a poor decision. You’re top of the game in new media you don’t need the clout of old media and working within old media you’re probably getting in to a ton of union payouts and restrictions you don’t normally work within as a YouTuber.

Only way it would make sense would be getting a huge payout from Amazon and then running the show on a tight budget and scaling back where you can.
