I am starting as well and my goal is to partner. Reading this threat it actually made me think "why do I want to partner?" And it seems that it is the logical thing to do, the next step, or even what you are supposed to do once you get popular enough. But other than that I've never given it too much thought. I guess the basic benefits sound cool like protection against certain copyright nuisances and the use of music would be the big one for me. It feels almost like it is joining an union. I suppose its more about your personal goals and where you want to take your channel as it grows. Certainly Youtube has made it easier in the past year to use game footage and grow and even earn some money out of it.
