"Google would charge advertisers 20$ for every 1000 times the ad was displayed"

Do you think they're referring to the banner the bottom of the video or the ones that actually get clicked? I'd say the former..

This could be amazing money for YouTube movie makers. It could completely revolutionize the world as we know it.

Think about it -- take your $500 camera and go record some newsworthy event, and get a couple million impressions .. you just made yourself 20Gs like that (assuming a 50% rev share).

Ok, maybe it won't be that easy, but still... People can suddenly make money shooting amateur movies.

News gathering will be completely thrown on its head. The world is suddenly about to change, massively.

Maybe I should go buy some google stock...
