I know not everyone uses YouTube for viewing/listening to the episodes but it's my usual format.

A lot of ''YouTubers'' often say things such as: "Remember to like an subscribe".
Although this is sometimes annoying it really helps to remind people to do that.

I've watched so many of The Dis Unplugged videos and forgot to "like" them.

Just thinking if they quickly put that in there the videos could push for even more views and bring even more deserving success to The Dis team.

Just putting it out there.
 
I would check YouTubes rules and guidelines before advising this. Just because people do it does not mean that it is allowed. I know with Facebook their official rules state that on a Like page is a company or organisation or business it is against the rules to ask people to tag or share. You can only ask people to do something on the page, ie comment or like. Companies still do Like and Share because a) they don't know about the official rules or b) don't care about the rules. I know business who have lost their pages due to violating Facebook rules.It is possible the same rules are on YouTube.

Asking viewers to "Like and Subscribe" is fine, I'm pretty sure of this, or else why would all the big channels do this and not be punished?
The only thing you aren't allowed to do is ask people to click the adverts I believe.

there's no rule that says people can't say "like and subscribe" in their videos..
 


We do it. We typically wait until the end of the video for the exact reason you said - it is annoying right up front. It may not be nearly as effective, but it’s less intrusive.
I guess it's just not constantly announced multiple times like many YouTubers, who overly do it so for that I appreciate it thanks. I always try to remember anyway, I know how much likes and subscribes help, especially since "Addpocalypse."

YouTube and FB are different forms of social media though and don't operate the same. The entire purpose of YouTube is for videos to be viewed and viewed often as well as videos shared. It's all about gaining viewership of content. It's not against their rules.

What is against the rules is buying views or subscribing to a channel in exchange for them subscribing to you, etc. Basically going about bribing people to increase your viewership and popularity.

The mere phrase "like and subscribe" is totally ok.
