When television went from having a few channels (say five) to the hundred plus that we have today, the major possibilities that were opened up were theme-based channels. This means that television potentially had something for everyone, the caveat being that there were a few content creators and many viewers. The Internet, of course, changed all that, especially with YouTube where pretty much any viewer could also be a content creator. YouTube already has channels for types of content and now they're expanding these channels, "including channels created by well-known personalities and content producers from the TV, film, music, news, and sports fields, as well as some of the most innovative up-and-coming media companies in the world and some of YouTube’s own existing partners," they announced in a blog post.
