Actually if you just starting out on YouTube you should be running as far as you can from useless networks who like to prey on young impressionable kids so they can get more free money for doing nothing. Networks are for big channels only. Small channels are nothing more than pawns for networks to make more money from, using them like a pimp and his girls.
This seems to be an opinion a lot of people have with no reasoning. Why exactly do you think this is the case?
If they offer you a bunch of resources (free music library, adsense protection, forums, gadgets etc) and request 10-40% of your revenue (which is essentially nothing for quite a long time when starting off) isnt that good value? I mean if you used 1 song from their library rather than paying 5-20$ for it elsewhere, you've already gotten months costs in value.

Very good thread. Like to add that the best way to find out the who the best network is, is by trying several to see which treats you the best. If a network acts like they are too good for you, find someone else.

I think the main factor of picking a partnership is the actual fourm and help behind it. If the rates aren't that it shouldn't matter that much because a good community will spread more then a good paycheck.

So, I heard that you really shouldn't partner with YouTube if your a gaming channel because they don't really support gaming channels like that, but i'm not sure. Is this true?

I don't really understand what a "YouTube Network" is? And what are the CPM's, why would you need to choose a network at all??
