Breaking News: Youtube gives more information for the subscription !

Hey all ! 

In the previous article, I announced that Youtube was going for a monetization system based on VOLONTARY subscription fees for viewers. 

The principle has 2 sides
- allow the subscribed viewers to skip the ads.
- allow the viewers to financially help their favourite youtubers for the time (and equipment) spent to think, create, film, mount and share their work. 

Now, here are some new and fresh details obtained from Youtube on this new system !

For the creators
Preliminaries: 
- Your Youtube account should be in "partnership" state
- You must have a validated google adsense account attached to your youtube account
- You must have enabled the monetization of your videos on Youtube
- You must only produce and share 100%-created content (video and music included)
The money will only come in your pocket if you are ok with all the preliminary points.
"the following YouTube Partner Program Terms apply to your participation in the YouTube Partner Program "

YouTube will pay you as follow:

For the "old" system of advertisement, Youtube will give you "55% of net revenues recognized by YouTube from ads displayed or streamed by YouTube or an authorized third party on your Content"

for the new subscription system, here are the rules:   
"1.2 [...] YouTube will pay you 55% of the total net revenues recognized by YouTube from subscription fees that are attributable to the monthly views or watchtime of your Content as a percentage of the monthly views or watchtime of all or a subset of participating content in the relevant subscription offering (as determined by YouTube)."
To be clear:
- if someone subscribes only to your channel, you will receive 55% of this monthly fee
- if several channels are subscribed by someone, then you will receive a pro rata of this amount, based on how much time the viewer spent on YOUR content. Better catch them for the longest possible time then !

How much ? 
Some american magazine (The Verge) announced that this subscription could cost 10 dollars (9,3 euros).
 


Concerning your next uploads: this new system does not come with requirements in terms of production rate (time between 2 uploads) or any exclusivity term with regards to Youtube. 
What do I have to do to take advantage of this offer ?
NOTHING, if your content is monetized, then Youtube will make your content available for the subscription process. If you disagree with it, then you should set your sharing of your videos in private mode only.

For the viewers
Paying for a monthly subscription allows a viewer to support his favourite youtubers and gives him the exclusive advantage to skip the ads on youtube (except if you are that dedicated to support AND support your favourite youtuber by clicking on the ads !)

This application would allow the viewers to download the videos to watch them off-line.
More news 
This new system is supposed to arrive "very soon [...] in 2015". Knowing that the new General Terms and conditions apply starting on the 15th of June 2015.  

Particular case: those who want can still make their videos not available in certain countries.

Have a great day !
A share or a like of this work = 1 happier koala in the World !
T.
