I am confused. Don't you have to create your own videos first and then upload them to YouTube? Or is that a common practice that for people to delete their local copy of videos after they upload to YouTube?
I am defenitely not blaming the person in any way. I just don't understand this behavior after have seen this for several times. Why wouldn't you keep your local copy? It just doesn't make any sense to me.
- bootloop 5y agoSome (big) creators store all related material and the videos themselves. Others get rid of everything once the video is finished and uploaded. Edit: Of all my YT videos I wouldn't know where I have the sources stored although I never deliberately deleted them.
- temp8964 5y agoIs this because video files are very large and store them will be very expensive? I honestly have no idea how large they are, but I would be surprised if it will become a significant portion of the cost of a serious business.
- Ekaros 5y agoThey can be pretty large. I see point of not storing raw footage, but finished videos after encoding is surely something to keep. Just for in future to upload to other services.. At least if you run actually profitable business.
