$10 a month? Really? A single video a month can still easily make you more than that, unless you get absolutely zero people watching your videos. Hell, I haven't uploaded a single video in months, yet up until last month, my average Adsense income was $30 a month. The average Let's Play-er, who uploads videos regularly and gets a decent amount of views, probably makes at least double that. Anyone who has a steady viewer base will make hundreds easily.
Now, while that's not a great amount of income - certainly not something one can live off of - it does make a huge impact on livelihood, as well as the ability to maintain one's channel for the purpose of supplying future content.

While that has been there since forever, Google's Adsense service, the one Youtube provides by default, contradicts that, as you can see in my previous post, where I liked to that rule. Video game footage is not in the red, unless you're not doing it right.
