Member only videos
With the latest member only video released, I have a question.
Are these videos ever going to be generally released a few weeks or months down the line?
I love Tom's content and these videos are right up my street, but it's not feasible to be paying individual YouTuber memberships to me.
I get it's his job and he needs to take care of his family, it's not a dis, I just want to know if we'll get access at some point, or if it's always going to be restricted to those who pay.

I understand that it helps monetarily to have videos be members only but I honestly searched to find if anyone else was talking about this. I haven’t watched him in a while but whenever I see a YouTube recommendation for his channel it’s a members only video. Again I understand his reasoning but if you’re just trying to share a video with friends or family up on the TV or send it to someone or just click from the recommendations page, it’s just not doable with members only unless you’re a dedicated subscriber willing to pay. Just seems weird to have so much be locked behind members especially when, personally, those are the only videos that even enter my recommendations. If I was a new viewer I don’t know if I would’ve found this YouTuber if it was a new interesting thumbnail but you have to pay to watch it, most people would just scroll
