If You Tube doesn't allow us, they are going to lose money as thy already have, they will soon be facing recession in their office,... and hopefully there will be no bailouts for them...

with decent coding it would be easy to know which views are fake (bot) and which from a real user, and i dont think it has anything to do with how lomg a video is watched since those programs have timers for that to set up the time for the bots to cycle, but as said above its a cats and mouse game it might be cracked soon by some skilled coders some thiings YT could have done is to check where the host (ips) come from and if the viewing patttern looks natural or not, YT might not be making money but google is and since YT belongs to google, but still google hasn't found the right way to make good money with YT, and all those copyrights problems they get into costs them a lot too.

I heard they are making it so a percentage of the video has to be played before they count it as a view. That's just wat ive heard tho..

That can be verified by making a short 20 seconds video and see how the views are counted...

 

[BrianBear]

Even if YT allows only 1 view per IP we can still get around this using huge proxy lists, I think it's something else though.

 

[lurnme]

lol thatd be so stupid if youTube only counted 1 view per IP. What if a video is really awesome and so it draws back the views to watch it 10 times, it deserves 10 hits (if not more). Why doesn't youtube just make a threshold of 10 hits per day per IP? Theyre stupid.. Not that I want them to do that or anything..

Actually it was stupid to count all hits, views should be uniques(from their point of view). Yes it sucks for you guys but it made no sense that way. The old way is just asking to be abused.

yeah i agree with you, I basically just said to only count each unique up to 10 times, no more.

Let me tell you how Youtube can make tons of money. They should charge EVERYONE that wants to view videos $5 a month, and they can view unlimited videos.

Those who don't pay can only watch like 10 videos a month.

They have what like 100 million members? Let's say 25% of them does this. Now they are looking at 25,000,000 x $5 = $125,000,000 PER Month.

End of story.

 

[bobbylove321]

Those $125,000,000 Per Month are just off their users. Now imagine they incorporate Google's ppc crap in there and that's another easy $30 million Per Month.

Now you are at $155,000,000 Per Month or in other words $1,860,000,000 Billion A Year.

For those countries that can't pay like some parts of Asia, Africa, etc. then you don't charge them. Like I said this is 25 million users off their 100 million.

Youtube would be RICH, and they can make a deal with Universal Music Group,etc.

Well thats true; they will profit from that, and plus from the $1000's i was making from youtube a $5 fee wouldnt be so bad. Also it will help them with bandwidth costs

 

[luke82817]

$5 / month is gunna be the undoing of youTube.. Yes it's only $5 but theyre gunna lose over half of their views, probably more like 80%. O well, fuck youTube. I hope they get fucked up the ass with some more blackhat dildos.

 

[partypills]

actually they gonna lose money because who is willing to pay the $5 /month? since there are many viewers who are kids/teen with no credit card or they live in poor countries where they wouldn't wanna pay the $5 youtube is gonna lose traffic biig time

what new videos? do they increase to 200+ then freeze?

 

[bobbylove321]

Yes Crashover,

Please do share the information. Did the views go passed 200? How many views did you use? What kind of video?

 

[marcello]

Yeah that's what I would like to know too. I increased my video and it froze at 204 or 201 views. Now I can't even manually increase the view count (used proxy manually, viewed my video full lenght, etc). Seems disabled for my video. Hopefully it's just a temporary ban Any idea how to fix this or does anybody has the same issue?

 

[crashover]

i will boost views untill 200 of a new video and i give you the link, well i try at least wait some minutes and i post back
