I think it'd be cool as long as it doesn't reduce the amount of money that the video uploaders can make off of it.<p>It'd just be more cash to fuel game development.

What happens to that cut if they don't take it. That is the question and with that I'm sure Notch has a charity he approves of.

On a related note: Nintendo is applying a new policy of putting ads on YouTube videos of their games.<p><a href="http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/05/16/nintendo-enforces-copyright-on-youtube-lets-plays" rel="nofollow">http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/05/16/nintendo-enforces-cop...</a><p>Apparently what they mean by "ensure Nintendo content is shared across social media channels in an appropriate and safe way" is roughly "safe means we make money off it"<p>So it's cool to see Notch mention that he had the same opportunity and didn't take it.

Why didn't he put it to a charity or ask the money to be given to the uploaders.

In the next tweet he says he almost did it.

Oh Notch, you so generous. Does Minecraft ever go on sale?
