If you do it and it's not amazingly-popular, you'll only make like 50 cents a year.So... According to you guys... I should be able to take a let's play video.... add my own commentary... daraw a few doodles on it...and make money off it.
Wonder how long before those LPers start to get pissed...
I have 'earned' a grand total of $14.76 from adsense since 2010, which includes the text ad at the bottom of my site, and the monetization on youtube. Google doesn't even send out money until it hits $100, so most people make nothing off of youtube ads (one of the reasons I stopped doing it... also now they require phone verification and tax information, I don't have a cell and I'm not putting in my tax info and shit just to get $0 in return).
This will realistically affect a small amount of people, since it's NOT as simple as "record video game, get money"... but for those people, this is often their job.
