I hope that some YouTube publishers start using this. It's always jarring when some tech vlogger puts up a video with blatant mispronunciations.
Sometimes it can be attributed to regionalisms (8-Bit Guy uses Texas-isms in addition to his usual set of mispronunciations). Sometimes it's just not paying attention, like one video game blogger who mispronounced "Imagic," showed an old Imagic TV commercial where the name was pronounced correctly, and then mispronounced "Imagic" immediately after. But some simply aren't bothering to look up the correct pronunciation of things.
