Most Lets Players are not providing a commentary. The vast majority of Lets players are only providing an emotional reaction to the game which requires no structure or intellectual purpose. There is a very big difference. Its basically like saying the audience of a football game are just as much of a commentator as the announcer on TV. Remember, the announcer provides an analysis of each player, which team he thinks will win, and what will happen in the future. The audience's actions are a direct result of the game, and nothing else. Look at Pewdiepie and Tobuscus' videos and tell me with a straight face that is a commentary, or that they deserve to make millions of dollars off those videos.

If you want to see a gaming video done right with actual creative content and commentary, watch this video. This is the type of stuff that I'm okay with.
