Watching clips on the YouTube web portal will now be paid for. YouTube is introducing a monthly subscription, which is the result of a pilot project that has been running on certain channels since 2013 (UFC, National Geographic, PGA,...).

And they made a lot of money with both, while at the same time getting the user to accept theirs in a soft way new policy.
