Addressing the World Economic Forum in Switzerland, YouTube co-founder Chad Hurley said the company was preparing to share with users the advertising revenues generated by the sites' 70 million video views per day.
"We are getting an audience large enough where we have an opportunity to support creativity, to foster creativity through sharing revenue with our users," Hurley said. "So in the coming months, we are going to be opening that up."
Hurley provided no details as to how the revenue sharing would work, but one option would be a GoogleAds-like system considering Google acquired YouTube for US$1.65 billion last year.
