Break.com vs. YouTube
03/15/2007
Why?: On Break they advertise that you can earn money for your videos. . . up to $2,000 if it is posted to their home-page.
The test: This time, since break has an emphasis on the videos posted on their home-page, I decided to look at what was at the top of their home-page vs. what was at the top of YouTube's home-page.
YouTube:
On Break.com, as on YouTube, it is very easy to embed and blog a video:
Girl Dances Right Off The Stage - Click Here for more great videos and pictures!
The Judgment: If Break and the video-sites like them can lure people with the smell of money then they'll probably be able to cough up some interesting content. There's still the fact that YouTube is known by the most people and that YouTube videos have been used in commercials, so there must be money and fame to be made by being on their home-page. For instance this article. YouTube might not pay you themselves, but the rest of the world might pay you if you put up a good YouTube.
It seems like the most money to be had is where the most people are watching.
