I know this sounds bad, but holy hell how have standards in streaming content fallen so much? Every time something piques my interest I turn it on only to hear:
- Dogshit audio quality, like someone's calling in from a landline at the train station.
- Embarrassing, retarded speaking issues, like disabilities, pathologies, and disfigurements
- Cringe-sounding voices that make you ashamed to share a hobby with them
- Coughing into the microphone
- Eating into the mic, then going overboard and doing it even worse when people complain. (*great* joke, dude, that's *hilarious*)
- Smoking into the mic so people hear your bongwater, or burping and laughing about how gross it sounds
- No good microphone, streaming on airpods or phone headsets as if that's adequate.
- No audio mastery for pre-recorded stuff. I've seen full-on million-dollar operations "master" their shit by booting up imovie on the intern's macbook and hitting the "autofix" while listening to their video through the stock laptop speakers
