For those who complain about this, maybe they should try asking for it themselves. It may actually work better than expected.

Totally. I mean it can't hurt to ask, right? I just don't think we should be so judgey about it. People say 'oh well I need a new car, maybe I should ask the internet' but they've missed the point. I think if you ask for money for a world trip that's taking the piss, but asking for a donation for new brakes in return for continuing content viewers enjoy, why not? Or one I saw was a girl who was filming her trip across America got her camera gear stolen and couldn't afford more to keep filming. I mean if people want to donate 5 or 20 bucks, who cares?

I was thinking, if they had 90,000 subs, and say only 1000 of them sent in 20 bucks each, well - that's pretty cool isn't it?

I just wish I had a face for film :P
