It can't be true...

UruseiNeo:
This... is a little disbelieving... I recently checked my email for my youtube account that uploaded season 3 of Urusei Yatsura and I don't quite know what to make of this... I'll let you read it:

["Dear UruseiNeo,

Your video "UY 44 Part 1/3" has become popular on YouTube, and you're eligible to apply for the YouTube Partnership Program, which allows you to make money from playbacks of your video.

Once you're approved, making money from your video is easy. Here's how it works: First sign into your YouTube account. Then, complete the steps outlined here: (blah blah address). Once you're finished, we'll start placing ads next to your video and pay you a share of the revenue as long as you meet the program requirements.

We look forward to adding your video to the YouTube Partnership Program. Thanks and good luck!

The YouTube Team"]

So basically... I would be getting paid... for uploading a copyrighted anime? It can't be true...

SonicDaMan:
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Funny you mention that. A few weeks ago, the same thing happened to a famous YouTube poop artist (if you know what YouTube poop is, you KNOW that's not supposed to happen)

UruseiNeo:
What I think it comes down to is, once you get enough views (the video had 27, 000+ which is likely more than any of my other videos) they send you this email automatically.

And what ur getting paid for isn't the video itself, but the advertisement they put up because ur video is so popular.

SonicDaMan:
Well all I can say is, be careful. Just don't get into any trouble XD

UruseiNeo:
I'm not gonna accept it. Since the video isn't really mine I can't exactly get paid for it.

Sure... maybe I can get away with it for some period of time... but eventually they would find out and by that time I'll be in too deep.

It's better just to try and make my own video to get it 27k views.
