That said, $2-3 CPM sounds high to me. But I don't know anything about the YouTube ad market.

I know about the YouTube ad market and $2-$3 is reasonable, especially for gamers who get higher CPM thanks to very targeted advertising.

Ah yea, missed the CPM part there. That's a ridiculous amount of money then. Husky and HD have 10+ videos a week with 150-200K views.
