I don't know if you have monetzied your Youtube demos and vids over time, but I logged into my account only to be met with the following announcement.
http://i63.tinypic.com/24xgy94.jpgSeems we will no longer receive any monetisation if we do not get an annual 4000 hrs of views PLUS 1,000 subscribers: Dictatum reads:
"In addition to 1,000 total subscribers, channels need to have 4,000 watch hours in the past 12 months to qualify for YPP."I was never gonner be rich off mine, but I had slowly started to make a few £ and now is being grabbed back... I will not even get my sub £60 balance by Feb...

YT is great for so many reasons, but they seem hell bent on getting a bad name with these decisions.
Today I had a video from a channel I subscribe to talking about the changes in respect of the numbers and swearing and expecting to lose his £60 per year. So he inserted lots of clips of Susie Dent saying c**t into his video.
I guess building up a platform to provide a new outlet for creators, signing up 100s and then Weinstening them doesn't count as evil...?
I guess they can just say "my gaff, my rules" - no rival in the space comes even close in terms of name or reach. Might mean a few less anti-semites and people who can crack jokes at a dead body becoming global stars, but shame if it screws over some others at the same time.
