My Son presented me with his movie today..its him demonstrating a home he has to sell and also a shops and office development.. He plans to put it on his web site but seeing this funny telescope movie and noting that it was an advertisment I ask if anyone knows what the deal is with Utube ..do they charge for promotional stuff or are they just happy to get anything simply to bump the numbers.
