It did not surprise longtime observers of YouTube to read the company is in talks with Hollywood to prepare a “robust” lineup of shows for its new subscription service, YouTube Red. From its earliest days, YouTube has been in a dance with traditional studios and broadcasters, sometimes leaving core creators wanting for attention.

Or the time they waltzed with all kinds of Hollywood creators to make “quality entertainment.” Other times YouTube followed big studios’ leads and tapped and then stomped around copyright infringement.
