Pointless exercise? One could say the same thing about people posting on a forum. Many people love reading reviews, many people love listening to reviews and some love both. The nice thing about reading or listening to reviews is that it gives you a perspective about the tobacco other than what the tin description says. You may disagree with the review entirely, or you may find it spot on or some where in between. At least its a different take on the tobacco. Guess it's pointless for someone to post reviews on tobaccoreviews .com because those ae just personal tastes and biased commentary also.
Who cares if someone has to relight their pipe during a review or pause to reflect on their comments/thoughts? When you sit and have a conversation with another person smoking a pipe does it bother you if they have to relight their pipe during the conversation? That shouldn't matter. If that person's channel is not your thing that's fine, but many people enjoy the reviews as they are. If you come across someone you don't enjoy then move on to another person or don't. Your choice, but there are a lot of very informative people giving reviews, but you'll need an attention span longer than 2 minutes. As much as someone might just be looking for a few interesting notes about a tobacco, the person making the video and many other people use the YT format as a way to interact with fellow pipe smokers. Just like people interact on a forum. There's a reason why we call it the YTPC, because we're an actual community of pipe smokers that use the video format to socialize with one another.
