Anandtech isn't about being first with a rewrite of a press release, it's about in-depth analysis and perspective of said press release, which requires time.
It's also about in-depth articles that doesn't just run 3dmark on whatever hardware OEM's decide to distribute to reviewers, but offers actual insight at a very high level about a lot of different things like manufacturing, technology behind the products, why a company made a decision that the public might not easily understand and so on. This is why I keep coming back to the site, and as long as they keep doing this, I don't care who owns them. I can just block the ads.
I don't know if you visited Toms Hardware before they got bought out but it used to be what Anandtech is now. They did great in-depth reviews, great articles on latest technology and they also did videos in a similar vein to what Anandtech does right now. I'm sure we've all seen the heatsink removal test video Toms did and the liquid nitrogen videos. We're talking <2007 here
After they got bought out the entire website went to crap. The reviews were no longer in-depth, the video content dried up, articles were just click-bait, the layout of the site completely changed and it no longer looked nice or was easy to browse. It just became a cluttered husk of titles all over the place, a shotgun approach of
"we must have SOMETHING you wanna read".
And one of the most annoying things they did was break articles/reviews into smaller chunks to spread it across more pages. So instead of a 12 page review it's now 24 pages but the content hasn't changed, it's just each page is cut in half and spread out so they can get more page impressions which results in higher ad revenue.
Now I'm not blaming Purch for this. They've only owned the site for about a year, Toms Hardware has changed hands about 3 or 4 times since the original 2007 buy out but looking at the site today it doesn't look any different to what it did two or three years ago and I'm afraid they are going to ruin Anandtech which is a site I visit daily and love.
