Content curation

Curation and creation get treated as opposites, which misses how much of both goes into a good playlist, a reaction video, a links newsletter or a best-of compilation. Somebody had to know the field well enough to choose. The work is real and so is the risk. Reuse without meaningful commentary runs into copyright trouble, and channels built on lightly repackaged material run into monetisation trouble, since YouTube treats templated work with little variation between uploads as generic and repetitive. Curation earns its keep where your framing gives a viewer something the sources alone would not.
