Why I would subscribe to video channels, when I have this feature in YouTube?

@timraybould Hi Tim, thanks for the reply, I'll take a shot and test it on one of my YT subscriptions ;) Although, I don't see it as feasible option for my ~100 subscriptions...
My reflection is that you cannot sell a stripped-down video player as a solution for the information-overloaded-binged-watching issue of ill-set YouTube KPI's.
IMO, recommended video section on YT enables me to reach amazing content that I wouldn't even know that existed in the first place - I usually add it to Watch later list, which partially helps with the 'rabbit hole' syndrome.
There IS a need for some smarter way to control our media consumption, but manually subscribing to video channels is not it.

@timraybould Btw. I'm a day-one user of Stoop, but I didn't convert to premium, yet... and of course, I have some suggestions;D
I'd gladly pay $10 for:
* Option to subscribe to an auto-generated daily, weekly or monthly newsletter on self-picked subreddits.
* Option to subscribe to an auto-generated daily, weekly or monthly newsletter on best tweets from my observed accounts (think Nuzzle in form of a newsletter).
*Option to subscribe to an auto-generated daily, weekly or monthly newsletter from selected Google alert keywords (Feedly does have a similar feature but in form of RSS)
Some left-brain thinking for premium features:
* Guest newsletters - experts share their top-picked - like a Spotify playlist: i.e Joe Rogan shares his favorite links from his podcasts...
* Option to tip and send a question to newsletter author (ala Medium)
If you need any help with design, feel free to reach me on twitter. :)
