I sort of feel like pewds made a mistake with this whole T-Series thing in the first place.
He should of just dismissed it and still claimed the #1 spot if asked or if the discussion came up.
T-Series is a big company which conglomerates entertainment from numerous sources and creators.
Like imagine if a channel was born in the West called "F-Series" and it contained all the new content of Markiplier, Jacksepticeye, Idubbz and other people and that channel surpassed pewdiepie... would it really count?
No, because its a "group" channel as opposed to a single creator.
T-Series "surpassing" pewdiepie is no different then youtube sports or youtube music surpassing him (an argument he already brought up in a recent video).
A group channel can't be compared to a single creator.
Also putting all that aside Pewds is still #1 in the English speaking world.
On the surface its somewhat illogical to compare big foreign markets like China/India to the English speaking Western world as they are fairly separate markets with most likely very little overlap in subs.
