A rumored idea -- not to be confused with PROFIT sharing, of course, as it's doubtful they have any of those to share -- is coming to fruition. Chad Hurley has announced revenue sharing at YouTube, and while specifics aren't available, you know it breaks down to a cut of the advertising attached to user-uploaded content, assuredly paying very similar to Google AdSense.
Notice I said user-uploaded content and not user-generated content. I am curious as to whether revenue generated from ads attached to what turns out to be copyrighted works will be returned to the copyright holder, negated into the ether or who knows what.
Anyway, expect a deluge of LonelyGirl videos out of this news.
