* ''WebAnimation/{{RWBY}}''. Some fans have eschewed watching new episodes entirely, saying; "Well, it's a good series, but I'll just buy the DVD when it comes out." Volume 1 and Volume 4 suffered heavily because of this - Volume 1 had terrible pacing problems since it was just starting out (most notably a set of four episodes in a row about the character Jaune Arc: tolerable when you can just watch the next episode right away, but painful when you had to wait until next week) and Volume 4 heavily employs FourLinesAllWaiting, meaning storylines would take weeks to get through because it bounced around a lot, compared to just mere minutes on DVD. This has only become more true as time goes on, as [[TheLawOfConservationOfDetail the nuances and thought behind character and story choices]] are more notable when watched as one full series instead of episode by episode or Volume by Volume, since much of the ChekhovsArmoury can take ''years'' to be relevant, with entire sections of early story oddities making much more sense or being recontextualized due to information provided from later Volumes.

You Tube Video line not really relevant anymore since the whole series got privated on You Tube/moved mainly to distributors.
