NPR on “Amateurs Getting Paid”
Click here to listen to NPR report by Laura Sydell about amateur video creators getting paid. It’s mostly about Google Video and the EepyBird fellas.

“This stuff will professionalize mainly because the audiences will become more discerning. What they’re willing to look at… the bar is going to rise,” says one expert on the report.
