That's where the problem is, a lot of popular content creators have contracts with large media groups which specifically prevents them to upload to another platform.
- gpm 7y agoDo the media partners in turn have contracts with youtube requiring that they upload to it exclusively? If not, maybe even if so, that might not be such a bad thing. It would mean that if you could negotiate a deal with a single media group to upload to your platform as well you get a lot of content. I don't imagine these businesses are any happier with being hostage by youtube than individual creators.
