I appealed and 15 minutes later thay came back saying they have looked at my account "carefully" and they found it breaches their policy. I know for a fact that I did not commit the offence they accused me of and there is no way to appeal the denial of the appeal. Even in a court of law, you are told what you are accused of and provided the evidence and allowed to defend yourself. YouTube are a lw unto themselves. They took my money for premium membership, cancelled my account and instead of doing the right thing and refunding my money, I had to request it from them. ----- ### "Youtube - World of Video" — 4.0/5 > **Brett** | *15 November 2025* | Music | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: You can find videos on almost any subject, and so much awesome music content\! I have made some great personal and public playlists. > > **Cons**: Imagine you're completely immersed in a song, the melody washing over you, the lyrics resonating with your emotions. You're lost in the rhythm, perhaps even humming along, when suddenly, jarringly, the music cuts out. The carefully crafted atmosphere shatters, replaced by a loud, often unrelated advertisement. This sudden intrusion of commercials mid-song is not just an interruption; it actively destroys the carefully cultivated musical vibe. It disrupts the flow, breaks the connection you felt with the artist and their creation, and leaves you feeling frustrated and disconnected from the experience. The seamless journey you were on is now fragmented, leaving a lingering sense of annoyance that can taint your enjoyment of the music even after the song resumes. The immersive power of music is diminished, sacrificed at the altar of commercialism. > > Good. I use it often for entertainment, comedy, music, study, research, and random stuff that pops into my feed. ----- ### "A must-have platform for content creators" — 5.0/5 > **Jason** | *18 July 2025* | Music | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: YouTube is an excellent source of educational, and entertaining material. It is also an excellent platform for content creators to build an engaged audience through their content. > > **Cons**: Copyright claims are handled in an overly robotic, or automated fashion. It can be a difficult process to prove your content is your own if another business claims your content as their own. > > YouTube's resources for content creators is very informative and readily available. The features that YouTube provides content creators are very useful and effective when it comes to promotion of content and audience reach. ----- ### "YouTube is the best platform" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *30 January 2025* | Music | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The ability to give creators the chance to share their journey > > **Cons**: It still doesn't have the best revenue sharing > > I have enjoyed my experience using YouTube for entertainment ----- ### "Greatest entertainment platform" — 5.0/5 > **Hussein** | *12 May 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: What i like most about Youtube is the accessibility. Its very easy to navigate and straight forward to use. Also love the amount of content you are able to find. You will always find something new to watch > > **Cons**: I just hoped that their were fewer ads when watching a video. Too many ads are being played when trying to watch a video everytime. ----- Page: 1 / 38\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.com.au/software/1020323/youtube?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.com.au/software/1020323/youtube) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | ----- ## Structured Data
