"forced"
It is still a big Internet out there. All it takes is an up and coming platform to steer people elsewhere.
YT is big, and yeah they will carry on via inertia, but for things like news, organizing, commentary? Yeah, people will seek it elsewhere.
- sieabah 5y agoYou have never dealt with bandwidth costs for video, have you.
- ddingus 5y agoNope, but they are off the charts!! Others will figure this out. The value is high enough for users to fund it. I would for sure. In fact, funding that via small money from people is likely the best model. AD driven stuff has too many conflicts of interest.
- sieabah 5y agoOh I absolutely agree, I think once R2 becomes GA it will be a game changer for a lot of VOD content or youtube-like platforms. Amazon, Google, and Azure are holding back an entire industry because of the price gouging they have on bandwidth.
