Courtesy of YouTube YouTube is rewarding those who bring the biggest audiences to its site with a piece of gold.

For the first time ever, the website is giving out gold-plated play buttons to any channels that surpass one million subscribers.

Consider this the equivalent to the Hollywood walk of fame for YouTube.

In addition to the plaque, each recipient will receive a YouTube branded gift card for video equipment and a camera case.

Another 1,400 channel owners that have surpassed 100,000 subscribers will receive a $500 YouTube gift card and camera case to help them reach the coveted one million subscriber mark.

YouTube plans to make this a quarterly event.
