Its only for a few certain specialist channels so far, but you can bet it will eventually spread to popular channels like Pewdiepie, Game Grumps, Epic Meal Time, Smosh etc.

EDIT: Ive analysed the current list and it seems almost all of them are new channels, however almost all of them are also music based. Are we going to see free copyrighted music videos taken away from us?

Well dayum, this will not end well.

I had a dream to be famous on youtube

OH shit, the is back! Welcome my friend. Missed the animated Larry lol.

Mr. Kamangar looks pretty cartoonishly evil in that article picture..

On the topic, yes, this isn't necessarily new news, I remember this being announced quite a while back, it seems they're finally planning to take it into effect now however.

I'm pretty sure that this isn't going to be a change across every channel on youtube, Google isn't that stupid.

Eh. I'm not worried. It's not like it'll spread to every video/channel on youtube. I actually find the idea interesting.
