CNET Top 5 - Reasons you shouldn't buy a drone

Remote controlled drones look like a lot of fun, but there are some good reasons to leave this hobby alone.

5 reasons to not have a girlfriend/boyfriend:
1) They can be expensive.
2) They are creepy. Have you noticed how they look at you? They also like to take their clothes off in front of you.
3) The law. It is illegal to do certain things with them in some states. You'll be a criminal.
4) Safety. Ever had a bad fight with one? Ever heard of broken hearts?
5) Slippery slope! First pay for his/her popcorn and movie ticket, next thing you know you are spending $5000 on a ring and even more on a wedding and honey moon! Let me save you the trouble.

This sounds like a propaganda video like they used to make about weed. Now they are after people's hobby. Stop it LAW can not and should not control every aspect of your life.

LUIS Top 5 - Reasons CNET failed at making this video
1- Clearly no real research was done beyond two dudes talking by the cooler.
2- Quad-copters /= drones
3- Sensationalism alert. "BEWARE OF FLYING OBJECTS
4- Using mockery to invalidate the hobby
5- Using "Too expensive" as an argument.

If hes trying to convince me to not get one. He did the exact opposite

[WesCheers]

I need ten reasons why the hell I watched this whole video..

Top 5 Reasons you should buy a quadcopter/multi-rotor :

1.Quadcopters can help you see exactly how good a job the roofer REALLY did on you roof.
2.Once you learn how to fly it, it is really fun and makes a great hobby.

3.They come in so many sizes, so if you want, you can fly micro quads in the comfort of your own home. (and some pets LOVE them)

4.They are just so cool and unique ; you have some with three motors, some with even six that have lifting power which can be very useful in commercial use making bird's-eye mapping and blueprints quick and easy!

BECAUSE SOME JERKOFF JUST DID A TOP FIVE ON WHY YOU SHOULDN'T GET ONE! 

[DiscoverRC]

Cameras: they're creepy. And expensive. Oh and they are in phones now too. That is extra creepy.

The real deal does NOT start at 500$
Cheerson cx-20=250$
V303=300$
Xk detect xk380=350
The hubsan series=200-300$
Syma x8c=80$
Syma x8g=100g
Or even syma x5c for just 40$


I could go on forever, but this video is a waste of my time

[InvincibleStormFilms]

By far the worst I've seen from you at #cnet. Actually it's the only one that bad. And this is really bad.

Whoever made this video has no idea what they are talking about. real drones dont start at 500, you start off with an inexpensive quad then you work your way up to a better one.
I started with a 40$ mini drone and now i own a phantom 3 standard (500$) and syma x8g 140$

[ITisCRAIG]

This is why I never come to CNET for tech news.

[TheSnyderman]

Well I guess it's a good thing I own RC Quadcopters and not a Drone! C-NET just showed us their ignorant card!

[allabouthim]

In many years of using youtube I've never given a thumbs down on anyone's work, but this is the first. A prime example that just because you have a big name, lots of money, beauty, talent, athleticism, famous actor, a voice like silk, etc...that you know what you're talking about. No disrespect intended.

[FULLYAUTO]

this video gave me a reason to buy a drone

[zippy]

What a dork !!!! He could find five bad things about water.

[ArkElementStudios]

You're convincing... I'm still buying it XD

[durgedagger]
