Does anyone have any experience in making money off Youtube? If so, what avenue did you take? Also, if you served ads, how were they served? What's the average earned income potential for let's say 100k views? How about 1M?

I know I'm spit-balling a bunch of questions -- I'm just tossing out a bunch of chum and seeing if anything is out there worth fishing for. Thanks!
