Youtube is apparently ready to start a revenue-share porgram with the top creators on the video sharing platform.

Chad Hurley, co-founder of YouTube said at the World Economic Forum in Davos Switzerland back in January that Youtube will start sharing revenue with users.

Youtube is now treating creators like Lonelygirl15, LisaNova, HappySlip, renetto, Smosh, and valsartdiary like premier media partners. There is no information yet on when or if Youtube will share revenue with all original video content creators on their popular video sharing platform.
