    For me, the answer to that question has nothing to do with a brand, name, price or reputation. If it does not do what it says it does, then it is a snake oil product.

    Jesus Christ, you people have absolutely no idea what 'snake oil' means. Just because a plugin isn't the best doesn't mean it's snake oil. Snake oil is when IT DOESN'T DO WHAT IT'S SUPPOSED TO DO AT ALL. And please detail what a plugin fails to do if you're dissing it.

    Oh and I fucking hate that WhiteSea faggot, god I wish I could kick his smug "my daddy bought me a real Pultec so I'm an expert" face.

    I agree 100% with what you say, not with how you say though. :rofl:

    For me that's the big problem with this debate. Technically snake oil means what you say, nothing that's supposed to do. A scam. But most people seems to think that applied to plugins it just means "a bad plugin".
    So don't complain later if the people that think "snake oil means scam" question your mental health. Too big words lead to too big critics.

    I don't like that channel. They're reviews for himself and he's almost a corner case for a music producer YTber. Small niche market if you fancy. Very prone to mislead inexperienced audience. If you need to know beforehand the particulars of a YTber reviews it's him/her fault. Put a big disclaimer in every one like some do.

    I am pretty sure that combination of words has never been seen on the internet before.
    You also gotta watch your language, fighting fire with fire is not making things better for anyone.

    if someone makes the 1,000th compressor plugin, and adds words like "This compressor will roll cigarettes for you and wash your socks" If you can't hear the difference between that compressor and the other 999 compressors, then the plugin adds nothing to the field, and therefore it's only feature is marketing, and marketing doesn't change the sound, so that's the same as snake oil.

    dont want continue this but i think it must be said....
    i think whenever a term is translated in a certain way, you cant take it 1:1...it may have the same meaning but could be used different..i think in the US its maybe a really destructive not so good aggressive term...but over here i kno some gay ppl calling other gays faggots no shit cause they dont like their way ...but that when they talk under friends...they sure never would bully them
    sure when a hetero supervisor calls a employee a fckn faggot cause he is gay....thats fckn NO GO...
