Onlookers#Netizen: Youku vote for screen charges, unsatisfactory eating#

Recently, the new media platform of "China Economic Weekly" reported that after a number of netizens reported that after opening Youku VIP membership rights, they needed to pay the cool meow members to use the screen service. Youku replied to this, and Youku VIP membership did not include a screen. Youku's move caused heated discussion among netizens.

Focus 1: Why can't I cast the screen suddenly?

@9 1989: Before I bought it, I would not tell me that I couldn't cast the screen. After I bought the year card, I suddenly couldn't cast the screen. If Youku has a return channel and users can choose to return, I will decisively refund the annual card.

@Sherry1984: I used Youku to pursue a TV series. When I saw the last episode, I suddenly couldn't cast the screen. For the end of the end, I spent 18 yuan to upgrade to a cool meow member.

@Mirror glass: I consulted the members who bought animated movies. If I couldn't cast the screen, what was the significance of my buying, and let the baby watch the cartoon with his mobile phone?

@： V: I installed cool cats, not a member. I can see the screen a few days ago. I can only see 6 minutes in the past two days.

@: Some time ago, Hisense TV system was updated, and the free children's cartoon resources were transferred to the children's channel before, and all members had the right to watch.

@: You can watch it before. Now you are not a member and you ca n’t throw the screen. Forcing you to upgrade the members and eat it too ugly.

Focus 2: Isn't it expensive to buy a screening screen function for 5 yuan?

@Lee Niu Niu: Youku members sent by 88 members, as long as 5 yuan is added a month, you can open Cool Meow. I don't think it is expensive.

@: This is not expensive, but they will get in the field. Today, I need to charge the screen to charge another money. Tomorrow you want to watch the video he has watched, he collects money again. You will find that you need countless members to watch normally.

@： 角 视: This is not a matter of money. Youku opened a precedent, and other platforms followed. How many 5 yuan do you have to spend to satisfy them. My members still have more than half a year. After the expiration, I will decisively uninstall and don't watch it.

@陀: As long as Youku was a VIP member before, it can be used on mobile phones, computers, and television. Now it ’s okay. The TV screen is upgraded to the cool meow. If Tencent, iQiyi, and Mango are all like this in the future, then it is better to recharge VIP members to chase the drama directly.

@gisele: The screen is a mobile phone function. What did the Youku app do and why did he charge?

@小: Tencent and iQiyi, the two screens do not charge the screen, only Youku's screen is charged.

@: The platform dares to charge a variety of membership fees, and it is also a problem that people who are willing to recharge.

Focus 3: How about other video platforms?

@: Iqiyi also cannot cast screen videos. For example, the cartoon "Lion King" will prompt that the screen is unable to cast the screen because of the requirements of the copyright party, and there are some documentaries that cannot be cast.

@01660213818: In addition to Youku membership fees, TV network fees have to pay every month, and you can only watch some live broadcasts. To watch back, watch other new movies, television, children's programs, and also charge separately.

@Jenny's bread circle: Since I found that watermelon videos, today's headline videos have a lot of free movies and documentary sources, I decisively uninstalled Tencent Video and Youku Video.

@: I decided to wait for the expiration of Youku, iQiyi, Mango TV, Tencent, and Cool Dog VIP members next year, no renewal.
