赚钱压力催生Youtube放映室
赚钱,赚钱,赚钱!Youtube在今年最重要的任务,但是,尽管,呃,它有不计其数的用户制作的精彩短片或者电视节目的片段,不过很长时间了,这些仿佛都不能吸引广告商。于是,Youtube想换种方式,播放一些专业制作的电影,目前是短片,可能也会播放长片。这就是Youtube放映室(Screen Room)。

现在正在播放的这部短片叫作“Our Time is Up” ,14分钟多一点。在近两个星期里,除了这部片子外,轮播的片子还有“The Danish Poet”、“Are you the favorite person of everybody?”和“Love and War”等3部。
用黄框圈着的地方,两个是广告位,一个是“buy now”的提示,也就是财源。收入会和影片制作方分成。不过这部片子的观看人数才只有2000多人(红框所示),太少了。
