Show Me the Money
Posted by Kuan Yong, YouTube APIs Product Manager
Money: it's on everyone's mind lately, and we know developers are no different. We understand that developers aren't just satisfied with creating the coolest YouTube mashup out there. They also want a way to sustain their efforts financially, and the trick is figuring out how to do so appropriately. That's why we've published a document that provides clear guidance on how you can monetize the apps you've built with the YouTube APIs. While it is not a substitute for reading our Terms of Service, it should point you to the clauses you should pay attention to and hopefully even give you some ideas for your next YouTube API-powered project.
So go ahead, launch the next great YouTube mashup, and monetize the hell out of it. And don't forget to tell us about your app at the YouTube Project Gallery.

Hi,
Great job done with the document.
I plan to release an application for windows mobile that can search and play videos from youtube and want to sell it on an online store, but have one problem.
There is no player/api for windows mobile to play the video. I have managed to do this by directly accessing the video stream and using a custom video decoder and can play the movie inside my application, but in your document in the "Video playback" part you write that I need to negotiate an agreement with YouTube if I want to have direct access to the YouTube video stream.
Who do I need to write to to gain permission to do it this way?
Thanks for your help
