Playlist / Mixes on YouTube gets crazy views, any fresh channel can get millions of views within first month, and you can make such video in just a couple of minutes! ## Why? You might ask, what’s the point for such project? Do the videos make money? No not really, for playlist videos RPM is rather low, sometimes you might get luck with stuff like “Music for coding”, “Tracks to listen during investing”, that will category your music as niche specific and get higher CPM, but that’s not guarantee so we shouldn’t focus of it?
