Good luck with your venture. One thing that I really hope is more refined than the rough description on the site is the "revenue per minute watched" model for paying creators. YouTube has switched to this model at some point (previously it counted views) and this hurts harder-to-produce content tremendously (like film or animation) while encouraging cheap-to-produce content (like slow-paced tutorials or video blogs.) Obviously just counting views has its issues (encourages click baiting), but this can be countered by looking at bounce-backs or what-not, and mainly YouTube did what it did because its ad business requires viewers to spend time on the site. With paying customers, hopefully it's possible to do better. (The drive for "minutes of content" reminds of the switch from cinema to TV - quality certainly took a hit because of the new demand for endless quantities...)
