Apple’s Official YouTube Channel? [Update]

Videos mocking and showing off Apple and its products have been on YouTube forever, but just recently (September 25th, 2008), a channel claiming to be the official channel has showen up on the web. The Official Apple’s Youtube channel on the popular video sharing site YouTube looks rather skeptical. Apple generally doesn’t join other sites, so this may not be theirs. And, with the backround picture, it doesn’t look too conviencing. If Apple was to join YouTube, or if this really is their channel, they could use it to put up tutorials and ad campaigns, and even host a VLog. Currently, the channel hosts 25 videos, but we would expect many more since these went up in the first few days.
Apple has a huge cult following, and this is already the #2 most subscribed this week and #33 most subscribed this month. But, if this actually was their channel, I’d think there’d be more subscribers. Though aside from channel subscribers, the most viewed video only has 884 views as of September 28th, 2008. The comments are aren’t too bad compared to usual YouTube video comments that trash the video. It’ll be interesting to see how Apple deals with the comments in the future when the channel rises in popularity, or if they ever make a YouTube channel.

You really think this is the official Apple page? Please tell me this is a joke. One look at the background screams “NO WAY!” Apple would never ever ever let something so poorly designed onto the web.
