You Tube Monetization reply...
Hi Steve,my aim like a lot of you on here was never about money or popularity. It is to provide creations that like minded people enjoy, I guess we are a niche within the YT system,we do not scream,shout, be outrageous or incessantly request people to subscribe - we just keep making videos that we enjoy within YT's terms and conditions. But in this corporate era it is not enough, or so it seems. One cannot force viewing or subscriptions.and make exponential sums of money,but the principal of earning a few cents has been with the channel for some time.It's withdrawal is akin to saying, we do not want your channel here ; why would anyone stay where they are not wanted. Like you, I am processing the situation and it may be beneficial if monetization ceases, one less situation to deal with. Either way I will keep friends on here posted.The letters of encouragement from you the few ,far outweighs the silence of the masses. Uplifting to know people still care.
