I think it would. A lot of people on Patreon have a very simple model: you pay to get access to the highest quality version of the thing and you get access before everyone else. To give an example, I support a singer that puts out a few songs every month. When she publishes something she includes the wav and a link to the unlisted YouTube video. Then a few weeks later she makes the video public and she puts up her song everywhere. After following her for a while on YouTube I eventually became a supporter because I want her to continue making great music.
