YouTube + New York City Ballet

I was aware that YouTube had a Channel features, but I didn't really get it until today. I kind of just thought is was a different way of organizing the videos. Today, strangely, it was an email from the New York City Ballet that made me look at Channels differently. The NYC ballet has launched its own YouTube channel (youtube.com/nycballet). This idea of a channel, which is more reflective of a specialized tv channel, makes a lot more sense to me. Maybe this was YouTubes idea of a channel all along, and I just wasn't getting it because "Floriparty74 Channel" just didn't mean anything to me. Bizarrely, I imagine that the NYC Ballet started a YouTube channel in an attempt to be more cool, but the effect it had on me was kind of the opposite... It made me take YouTube much more seriously.
