We have to remember that changes to a free site are probably for monetizing reasons. The more buttons they make you push the greater their sellable bank of information is.
Nothing is FREE! Google, You Tube, Facebook, etc., all make money by selling information about YOU! The more you click, the more they learn, the more they have to sell!
YouTube, I can't overstate how badly you've handled this. For such a huge site you ought to have something resembling a clue how to listen to and interact with your users!
The single thing you didn't do wrong is that you (apparently) haven't censored any criticism. Thank goodness, or everyone would have gone ballistic.
You got that right by accident though, because actually it's completely typical for responses to the YouTube blogs to be ignored.
IT'S POSSIBLE THIS ARTICLE LINK MAY NOT WORK AS MAYBE THEY ARE CENSORING ALL THE NEGATIVE COMMENTS THEY ARE GETTING:

I WAS THINKING OF NOT INTER-NETTING ANYMORE. I DO LOVE MY POGO CLUB AND MY SINGSNAP AND MY FLICKR/YAHOO AND MY PHOTOBUCKET, THOUGH!
When one company becomes a monopoly on the Internet, there's not much we can do. Either play their game or dropout altogether.
