Recently I reviewed Freewell's Brandon Li signature series VNDs. You can watch that video here: https://youtu.be/ksYj_55EG-4

After testing the glass, I found little to NO difference in the optical light cutting properties, colour control and cross patterning. The design is the big difference. Check out the price difference....I have both, the V2 is better IMHO.

Yesterday, I posted a video titled "DON'T buy AUDIIO's MUSIC subscription - It gets WORSE!" It's the second part to the on going issues I'm having with Audiio and how they fail to clear claims against the music they have a lot of YOUTUBERS sell for them. Clearly I am not one of them.

Instead of answering our well outstanding queries, Audiio did have time to send us multiple emails requesting:

"...Lifetime AI Access.....$99 gets you 50,000 credits (link removed) $199 gets you 200,000 credits (link removed) ... heavier usage than this, we recommend getting the 200,000 credits for $199, which you can find here: Link removed. Our goal is simple...
With gratitude,
Audiio........."

Heres a question for you, if you are experiencing issue with Audiio as we are, are you dropping another dime on their platform?

@Mme.Swisstella you said that you have NEVER seen Canon 5dmkii at the prices in the video. Well heres some for you. All prices listed BEFORE negotiation. All could be bought in the 100 dollar range.

Woke up today to further music copyright strikes, on AUDIIO's music. Thats another two rounds of fake "infringements" this week alone. These new strikes where against MUSIC Audiio advertised on their platform as NEW. So my strategy of only using their latest music in my videos to avoid further copyright issues, hasn't worked either. At this point I'm feeling like I have been hoodwinked.

Luckily todays video hasn't gone live, so it will be deleted and reedited. Which is a waste of time and money. If you would like to hear more about AUDIIO's service and how they respond when you contact them, understand all the music copyright issues Im having, check out the linked video.

‪@TheRealExitHero‬ You asked where to find Sirui's nightwalker's at the prices I discuss. Well heres a stack of them for sale. Any of these could be negotiated down to 160 -150 a lens or 500 for the set. In fact the Fuji set could be purchased for less than what I paid, being 500 for 3 lenses. My advice to you is find someone with a set, and negotiate the price down by being informed with market knowledge and never pay the asking / advertised price. This is what they seller is HOPING to get, not what they will sell for.

Woke up to more copyright claims against AUDIIO'S music library. So its clear that musicians are leaving their platform and trying to cash in a second time on what users have already paid for.

If you subscribe to my channel you would know that, this issue has been going on for a long time on my channel. And its still unresolved. The AUDIIO platform has massive issues and my experience is, the licences they sell aren't worth the paper they are written on.

The music just keeps getting copyright claims against it. They are slow to respond, if they respond at all and this is why I declined their offer to collaberate.

For more info on why you SHOULDN't SUBSCRIBE or BUY the service, warch this video: https://youtu.be/q2vwNYxjLwk
