Abstract
Advertisements are delivered with videos, the advertisements being cued to begin based on an analysis of metadata associated with the videos such as moments identified from user-submitted comments relative to the video. Credit earned by users based on their viewing and engagement activities may be gifted to other users or applied towards baseline fees assessed in connection with videos delivered to the user.

A method for delivering video and advertisements comprising:
- selectively ingesting metadata including one or more comments corresponding to one or more videos;
- analyzing the ingested video metadata, by a metadata analysis component executed by a processor, to identify moments in the corresponding video by parsing comments relating to the video, identifying a moment if a comment includes a reference to a time in the video and storing the time and a text of the comment in a record of the moment;
- evaluating videos, by an evaluation component executed by a processor, based on a comparison of their corresponding moments to advertisement parameters to identify one or more videos appropriate for an advertisement;
- analyzing the moments corresponding to the one or more videos identified as being appropriate for an advertisement, by a moment analysis component executed by a processor, to identify one or more advertisement cues;
- and
- delivering the one or more videos identified as being appropriate for an advertisement along with an advertisement, the advertisement being cued to begin at a time relative to the one or more videos based on the one or more identified advertisement cues.
