Bloglines #2: Youtube's Star Users (Modern Marketing)

In the Youtube's Star Users article on the Modern Marketing blog, it states that top rated users on Youtube will be placed on the same level as large media partners such as CBS. I feel that although this is a good idea it could backfire. There is a reason why these users are so highly ranked. Most likely it is because they have new ideas which they share using the Youtube network. By promoting these user's "channels," Youtube has set them up to be called on by major corporations to incorporate advertising into their channels. This could completely change the channels content and lower viewership.
