You mean the company paying for the storage, conversion, bandwidth, global availability and upkeep?

I mean, the creator should have its share, but it's not like YouTube does nothing.

No, a company such as Sony Entertainment or the like that takes all of the ad revenue from a melody that vaguely resembles a copyrighted song.

Yes, that happens.

Otherwise, there's no issue with YouTube getting add money.
