In my view, subscribers are just a number. It's when they become a viewer that they matter, from there, when they like or comment and from there if they share.

I find it's not really the best question to ask. Rather it better to be looking at retention rate, and interactions.

Nice!! Yeah vloging channels i guess they want the subs not the views...

Vlogging channels just don't get discovered by the youtube search engine because their video subjects can be so different. So they need a way to get some exposure in another way, subs can do that.
Gaming channels are easier to find because they come up as related videos, search result, suggestion because the game title tag is already linked with other videos of the same game.

For us, it depends on who enjoys what we make, so if it's our subscribers, then we'd rather have more subs, but if not, then we'd rather have active views from people who like our videos. We want people to like what we post and want to come back and watch it!

Its a hard one to choose from. Views are goo because you can see how much they are watching you video , watch time is important because the more they watch it must be good video :)

But then subs are good because it means they will come back most of the time anyway and your doing something right.

More tricky one indeed

you have a point there :p but you can check that from your average estimated wacthed minutes or something like that on your yt dashboard i think
views cause well views is better than a high sub count and low views i mean then people would think you have done sub4sub
