I'm not sure how many other people have heard about this, but I hear Google (the owner of YouTube) is thinking up ways to make more money from YouTube because it's actually costing more money to maintain it than make money from its ads. One suggestion I heard on the radio that could be a possibility would be to charge premium for the more highly viewed users, leaving us normal free-Internet enthusiasts with most of the crap that stinks up the site. As far as I'm concerned, YouTube has been and should always be free. I argue this not a hopeful businessman, but as a passionate, mostly liberal college student. Does anyone feel the same way?

I don't think Youtube SHOULD be free. I would be sad if they wanted to ask money from me, but I have no right to tell a business to be free or not. That's another thing that this plan of them is an instant failure. I mean, none of the video channels on Youtube is really high quality. I would pay for my TV, but not for Shane Dawson or Fred or a friggin Vevo channel for music artists, when I can find anything like that on TV. And most people are going to feel the same.
