Google rumored to be launching paid YouTube channels soon
According to reports, Google plans to team up with YouTube partners like Machinima, Maker Studios and Fullscreen to offer up paid subscription tiers, as well as bringing in new content brands.
Google began offering YouTube feature videos which you could rent in 2010, but allowing channels to charge money to access their content could turn YouTube into a online alternative to a cable TV network, if enough people actually sign up for them.

This is stupid. Very stupid, I find it to just be greedy companies wanting more money as if they don't earn enough already from making us watch the stupid advertisements before a video.

theartftw This isn't for small groups. Also, notice the word "offer". Less subscriptions means less views, less views would mean less money. The only video makers that would actually benefit from this are big title companies like TV networks, movie studios, and probably adult film industries.
Agreed.

I just hope the experience stays the same. I can usually bear with new layouts after a while, but now they added the "Load More" button to the "Browse Videos" tab on channels. It was better when I could just navigate by pages. All these sh*tty layouts at first, and now our favorite video sharing site is turning into a corporation? I hope this will just be an extra no one cares about, not the new face of YouTube.

I couldn't agree with this anymore than I do.
