1. I cannot advocate ad revenue for lets players, because all they are doing is playing the game and the content is not being used for a creative voice. Should they get paid? Thats up for debate (for me? No), but Angry Joes views mostly come from reviews and commentary, not Lets Plays. Actually his least popular views come from Lets Plays.

2. You don't know how many hours Angry Joe works. He has to record and edit his videos, which could probably take longer than most peoples eight hour days. He tends not to cut down his edits. He has literally a set at his house. This has become his life as well as for other Youtubers and you can tell by the quality of his production value in his games that he spends quite a bit of hours on them, including the acting, green screening, VFX, editing, Website and much, much more. 

1. The video that was limited for him was a let's play/stream. It wasn't a review. 

2. Somebody said that he mentioned it takes about 60 hours /video. If we include his movie reviews and top ten countdowns his total time spent on his videos on average, per year, is (60/video*127 videos/year)/6 years = 1270, which is a lot more than what I initially said, but still almost half of what other people work on average. I'm assuming he's adding gameplay to that estimate as well, which means a lot of his recreation time is merged with his work time. 

Dude, Joe has a lot that he does. His video's are only one part of his overall Youtube "Angry Joe" Venture. He flies out on location to events on his dime, he shoots on location with his own cameras, he takes the footage home and he edits those as well, runs his website and other things. He also has to balance doing videos for PC, Playstation and Xbox Platforms (Nintendo was going to be there but ...like third parties have agreed, forget them).
