YouTube making it harder to monetise videos
<center><img src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/CVXp3ZgUIr8/maxresdefault.jpg"></center>
So I received the following email today from YouTube...

> Under the new eligibility requirements announced today, your YouTube channel is no longer eligible for monetisation because it does not meet the new threshold of 4,000 hours of watch time within the past 12 months and 1,000 subscribers.

Unless I meet the new requirements within 30 days, all of my videos will be de-monetised.  This is going to hit small-time YouTube content creators (including me) hard.

Time to start investigating <a href="https://d.tube/">DTube</a>...

When I started thinking about making a small income online. YT was the first option I looked in to. I keep hearing story after story about how people who used to have a steady income and following all of a sudden get dropped and now have nothing out of nowhere. Thats why I decided on Steemit!

I don't usually pay attention to e-mails from youtube but after reading this I checked and sure enough, I got one of these notices too. I easily meet the hours watched but I only have about half the subscribers they want. I didn't make huge money with youtube ($20-$40 / month) but it was something. Definitely time to investigate other options. If they don't reverse this decision I'll be removing my videos from youtube as I upload them to DTube and/or whatever other alternatives I decide. 

Speaking of alternatives, anybody got a list, preferably with monetization, other than DTube? I will certainly be trying DTube first. Are there currently any length limits on videos uploaded to DTube? I know there were initially but I haven't been keeping up... I've got 8 years worth of videos so this is going to take a while but after eight years I've uploaded my last video to YouTube.

Ops! Why did they make like this eligibility requirements?? The days of YouTube’s Wild West glory days are coming to an end just to please advertisers and record labels.
I think Dtube is best but still I am not able to upload a single video on it :) Always uploading uploading and so on :(

Sorry to hear you had problems with DTube.  I've started moving my videos across and was actually surprised at how simple and painless the process was.  I didn't have any issues.

Today ! I am able to upload my first video after almost 2 hours hahaha 
https://steemit.com/music/@mzee/y0a5p36o
https://d.tube/#!/v/mzee/y0a5p36o

It was really confusing for me because I was using chrome. After lot of searching I find that chrome is not good for upload on dtube so try firefox and it is uploaded :)

Well thank you for this heads up! It goes to show how much YouTube cares about it's creators, even Casey Neistat says in numerous of his videos that YouTube doesn't do enough to show appreciation for the YouTube creator community.

I've already got my Dtube channel up and running! Check me out!
