“We are getting an audience large enough where we have an opportunity to support creativity, to foster creativity through sharing revenue with our users,” Chad Hurley, co-founder of YouTube, said at the World Economic Forum. “So in the coming months, we are going to be opening that up.”
These words herald great news for the millions of users who have been sharing videos on YouTube. This announcement will further motivate users to share more.
Details of renumeration haven’t been disclosed as of now.
Google had bought YouTube for $1.65 billion last November.

I wonder if YouTube/Google is doing this out of the kindness of their hearts or because they don’t want another alternative, aka revver.com, to have the chance to grow into a serious competitor.

Somehow, I’m gonna be inclined more towards the latter.
Also, since there is no restriction as to where you can share your videos, users have the option of sharing it across video sites that helps them to earn.
