YouTube Pays for Play

SO YouTube has decided to open the doors of revenue to the independent filming masses. They are working with the BBC to pay users who upload uncopyrighted videos. It would be a great idea if we would be exposed to great films, clips, and videos of thought provoking videos. My guess is that they will end up with more videos of babies, pets, and stupid human tricks than they can handle. Hopefully the revenue incentive will build a community of people who are into quality uploads. I don’t have a problem with people who like to share their family videos or pets doing cute things, but I am talking on the larger scale…the content as a whole.
