The pre-Google YouTube is probably the closest thing I can think of. And just a time before when everything about the Internet was about profit.

Back when Google were cool.

Google was the absolute coolest for a while. It's a damn shame what they've become. Fuck you Sundar Pichai!

I'll admit that I didn't really get YouTube when I first heard of it. I think justin.tv was the thing that made me realize there was something there, even though I only watched it all of about twice. Then again, I thought music CDs were a scam for the longest time. I'm old.
