How do I know if I'm a youtube partner?

Well the thumbnails are more like something they're finally giving back. But overall it probably is the money. Most people who monetize will never make enough to even get one adsense payout, but all those pennies add up on YouTube's end.

My thought on why they did it is for money. Cause think of all the more money they're making now! I mean, they were already making $30 billion but still! >.<

I agree they're doing it to make as much money as possible.

Right and they ban people all the time before they can collect their first check. Adsense is garbage.

Heh yes, for those that are getting too close, adsense would rather ban you to steal your ~$100 now than wait for you to grow your audience and maybe make more in the future.

Ok that's exaggerating. But the outcome is the same.

Haha! Lol I know what you mean. I work hard for making these youtube videos, and people that post videos of like kids having a nerf war in their backyard get the same benefits as me. I just don't see the youtube logic here. Lol
