youtube and rightsflow...whats it all about

[woodfoot]

So I'm seeing that Google have acquired a company called rightsflow.

It appears to be a company who manage online content but I'm not quite clear.
Does this basically make content ID available to everyone?

Who knows about it?

""RightsFlow is an American company that provides organizations, bands, songwriters and individuals with music licensing services and royalty payment solutions. ""


So let's say your band practices for 6 months, writes a great song, rents some gear, and pays a little company to film your gig and put it on youtube,
and you get 80,000,000 hits and are an overnight sensation, each person in the band would get three bucks.
