Jenna Marbles Interview - YouTube Videos Reach Billionth Click; Tumblr, Blog Also Popular
This young lady might overuse the word RIDICULOUS, but she's getting rich doing so! She's one of the most popular people on YouTube and she did it all with simple little videos. Must be her good looks and sparkling personality...

Well, she is easy to look at. Maybe a little annoying, but easy on the eyes. And, let's face it, ditzy blonds can be entertaining...

YouTube explores pay-per-view model
A small number of channels and videos might become pay-per-view, but this provides just another way for online entertainers to become rich and famous!

Will paid YouTube channels be another nail in cable's coffin?
Monthly fee? :laugh:
Any channel that charges a fee ain't gonna be watched by me!!!

I wonder if Alex Jones will start charging people to listen to his rants. I'm sure some of his obsessed followers would gladly pay to support his organization!
:dizzy:
Something tells me that neither TYT or Alex Jones will become channels that charge a subscription fee. It's more likely that the extremely successful entertainment channels will take that route. Hopefully viewers boycott those channels and the whole program will be scrapped after just a few weeks!

Actually I'd like to see a commercial free internet. It seems that back in the 90s there were no ads on the internet. That was a better time. Ban all ads on the internet and make it illegal to charge a fee to access a website. Information should be free and the internet should be free!

Space Oddity
Hopefully there will be a duet with David Bowie and Chris Hadfield. This is nothing less than awesome! It's one of the only viral videos I've ever seen that actually deserves to be viral!
