The famous Youtubers that everyone knows about (Smosh, Jenna Marbles, iJustine, shanedawsontv and many more use apple products (iMac (their main computer), iPod, iPhone (their main phone), iPad (their tablet), Macbook (their laptop), Apple TV (what they use to watch TV), Apple Watch (their watch), and many more). Why is this so? (Could this be that they live in California (Where Apple so popular), or Could it be that apple has innovative ideas, or could it be that they are easy to use.)

You've listed a few but I could list many more that use Windows machines. Remember touting devices gets you invites and freebies. ;)

Easy to use, devices work together, and Apple makes great software that 'Tubers can use for their productions.

country specific i doubt has anything to do with it... I wish it was, that would probably make more sense. Probably all the same reason any other user likes/uses Apple products. Just because someone is popular doesn't mean they have to change habits. We'll like iJustine even if using a PC :)

I think it is as one said (boast) - it is culture. Working with Apple hardware doesn't guarantee superior work nor does it make one more creative. People raised on Windows do just fine as those raised with Apple.

Some while criticizing Apple over and over again...

They know what's good for them, and what fills their pockets.

Microsoft have the worlds most popular desktop OS.
Google have the worlds most popular search engine and smartphone OS.
So again, they don't have "moments" but sustained professional successfully planned businesses.
