Except it kind of is. As I mentioned elsewhere, Youtube has never reported a profit. That doesn’t mean there is not tremendous value they’ll get from it at some point, but for now it’s huge amount of effort for marginal reward.
- proc0 8y agoHmm, ok I don't the details of their profit model, but I'm sure this isn't just charity and have some plans of profiting from content creators if they haven't already. It's business from both sides. I'm sure YT would shut down if it didn't see the value of content creators.
