YouTube: New TV or Just a Time Waster - Sukh Parmar - Vishal Vijay Singh - Radio Haanji
Host:-
How do you use YouTube? Join Sukh Parmar and Vishal Vijay Singh on Radio Haanji as they discuss paid vs. free plans, daily watch time, and listener habits in this fun, fact-filled episode.
Is YouTube the new TV? Today on Haanji Melbourne, we found out the answer is a resounding "Yes!"
Hosts Sukh Parmar and Vishal Vijay Singh turned the studio into a digital debate room today, tackling the app that eats up most of our data and time: YouTube. With listeners calling in from across Melbourne, the conversation went beyond just "what do you watch" to uncover the real science of our scrolling habits.
One of the hottest topics was the split between free users and paid subscribers. Did you know that globally, YouTube Premium has crossed 125 million subscribers? Sukh and Vishal debated whether the ad-free experience and background play are worth the monthly fee, or if skipping ads after 5 seconds is a skill we should all keep sharpening!
We also crunched the numbers. Recent stats show the average Australian spends nearly 48 minutes a day on YouTube. But judging by our listener calls, many of us are guilty of "doom-scrolling" through Shorts for much longer! From learning new recipes to getting lost in old Punjabi songs, we discussed exactly where those hours go.
Missed the fun? Catch the full replay to hear if your habit matches the rest of Melbourne!
