Yeah, I do give some YouTube partners credit, the ones who make good, informative, or entertaining videos. Then there are the ones who just make stupid videos and get money 'cause people like watching stupid videos. It does take a lot of work to become a YouTube partner though. Still, if you aren't a Youtube partner, you can make money online with your videos through Blip.TV and Clipta.

well if you think about, these people spend alot of time on their videos! they are dedicated to creating new and creative videos. i think they deserve it, they spend most of their life to youtube and are reaping the rewards. other people like us (me) dont have the type of life that allows us to spend hours editing and creating videos. and if you think about it and ask yourself, "why do these people get so many views?" Well i think it is because they have al the latest and greatest lighting, video recorders etc. these people stand out from he rest of other youtube film makers. Thats just my opinion.
