It wound up this way because Youtubers want more money than AdSense and Premium can give them. They earn a lot more from sponsorships than AdSense and Premium.

Are you suggesting that Youtube squeeze out more money per view than it's currently doing? How do you suggest doing this? I guess one way would be to block people from using adblockers...
- justinclift 3y agoAre you suggesting that Youtube is trustworthy, and creators shouldn't diversify their income sources?
- Thorrez 3y agoI'm not saying creators shouldn't diversity their income streams. My first comment in this chain was pointing out that Youtube isn't urging creators to embed sponsorships, which copperx seemed to think Youtube was doing.
- justinclift 3y agoYoutube is widely known to demonetise videos and outright kill established channels based upon spurious inputs / phase of moon / etc. The recent Russell Brand stuff easily springs to mind, as does abuse of the Content ID three strikes policy by bad actors. If the creators need their income to be resilient to demonetisation, they're forced to use options outside the Youtube system. Sponsorships, etc.
