Your math is wrong. It's $2 to $3 dollars per 1k views. So it'd be approximately $2,500 per million views. That's still a ton if you throw out a few videos a month with a million views.

It would only be $2500, the range of money people have suggested is 2$ to 10$ [B]per thousand views

1000000/1000 = 1000
1000*2.5 = $2500.
It's 2-3 dollars per 1k views, not per view.

What's Facepunch opinion on Pewdiepie?
[QUOTE=ragin cajun;37156579]What's Facepunch opinion on Pewdiepie?[/QUOTE]
Pretty much everyone hates him, I watch his videos sometimes because i like watching people play horror games.
[QUOTE=geogzm;37150709]I thought it was $3[/QUOTE]
That's still a fuck ton of money for the amount of shit these kind of YTers pump out every day
[QUOTE=ragin cajun;37156579]What's Facepunch opinion on Pewdiepie?[/QUOTE]
i would imagine the hate for him is a bit worse, since he's more childish, and so is his target audience
To be honest I think half of you dislike him because he is popular and whatnot. Also, I can't wait to get some boxes.
[QUOTE=BloodFox1222;37156595]Pretty much everyone hates him, I watch his videos sometimes because i like watching people play horror games.[/QUOTE]
I think his every-day videos are ok, nothing wrong with them but the there are some extremely funny moments every now and then.
This guy is one of the Creatures guys right? Don't watch them much myself, but I have a friend that does.
IIRC 8 or so guys, calling themselves the Creatures, pool their money together to live in some remote Colorado mansion.
Pretty sweet deal if you ask me. I'd do nothing but make thousands on youtube videos in a heartbeat.

Even though we give valid reasons as to why we hate him...........

I don't really "hate" pewdiepie.
I just don't hit his target audience.

the house is actually really nice from what I've seen. it must be badass to get to live with your best friends in a sweet mansion, playing video games and making lots of money for it.
pewdiepie is like an overgrown 12 year old with one the most irritating voices ever
also if anyone is curious nova has made $1,804,780.08 off of views (approximately, some of those may not be accounted for and assuming he makes $3 per 1k views)
[QUOTE=ragin cajun;37156579]What's Facepunch opinion on Pewdiepie?[/QUOTE]
He's absolutely atrocious.
[QUOTE=The First 11'er;37156208]So by that logic, he made approximately $17,000~ from THIS video:
[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5NylmdC_uEM&feature=plcp[/media][/QUOTE]
He's with machinima so a bit less than that unless he has a special contract, but yes. If he was with Curse or IGN that video could be worth $20,000. Excluding all mobile views as those aren't in the adsense system yet.
I'm not inflating anything. He actually did make around that much money from that video.

It is possible to hate a popular person without being jealous.
[QUOTE=Scot;37157032]It is possible to hate a popular person without being jealous.[/QUOTE]
This very much this.
It really grinds my gears when I dislike a popular figure like smosh or RWJ and I then go and voice legitimate reasons as to why I dislike him (smosh is a massive douche and RWJ literally makes tons of money off stolen videos) but then people default it to "you dislike him because he is popular/more subs than you/makes more money than you."
tobuscus' lets plays are fucking painful
but his Literal Videos are actually pretty fun, I love the Assassins Creed ones.
But his lets plays are him screaming repeadetdly

no hate taken, i just think it's ridiculous for such a shitty video he made that much
The problem with RWJ not disclaiming like any of his work is that we don't know if he asked permission or simply takes the video and claims fair use under commentary.
His commentary is shit unfortunately, but probably would still float.

Then the word "hater" comes into play and the complete lack of knowledge on how to use that word makes me want to throw my computer out the window.
I mean people like RWJ there's a reason to hate them, because they are basically getting money and popularity from other people's videos, but Nova or any other lets player, the only real reason to "hate" them is because they put little effort into videos. Well, they never put much effort to begin with so I don't see whats so bad. They ARE just lets players who just happen to hit it big. They are popular because their general personality is appealing to more people.
Just because someone's popular doesn't mean they have to work hard for it. I mean it's fine to not like them and such but I don't see a reason to hate them.
The only thing I know this guy from is that "you broke the rules" video and the occasional stupidly-high numbered happy wheels episode, does the guy actually do anything good? Or is he just a lucky guy who uploads videos of him playing the same game making loads of money?
Nova isn't that bad. Sure he makes Minecraft videos and other shit like that, but who doesn't that is also a Machinima/Google partner? That's what people wanna see, and Machinima knows it.

i've seen several cases of video makers telling off RWJ followers after he's covered their video, so i assume he doesn't ask

Minecraft is so popular it's amazing. I wish I didn't do more of it when my channel was getting loads of MC traffic.
Pretty sure all he does is play Happy Wheels and for some reason people watch him I got no idea why.
[QUOTE=Scot;37147260]He's nowhere near as bad as the likes of PewDiePie and Tobuscus but he still does the same stupid sellout shit they do, like Happy Wheels and Minecraft.[/QUOTE]

[editline]10th August 2012[/editline]

I watch him all the time. I actually have him on my Steam Friends list. Congrats to him.
