        I don’t see the problem with that. The difference is you pay instead of being served YouTube pre-roll ads. And they get a bigger cut than it would off of YouTube premium.

        As many hours as it takes to make a video It’s kind of amazing some people upload different versions on each platform, they don’t really have to.

            As someone who’s cut a lot of videos, at best that’s a maybe. Depends on the video, depends on the workflow, there’s a lot more to it sometimes.

      Like where? There’s really no direct competition to YouTube, and probably won’t be for a very long time.

      Won’t matter. As soon as those alternatives get big enough, they’ll either sell out or look for more ways to maximize profits. The Internet is wholely infected by corporations now. Just need better ways to beat them back somehow.

        YouTube has never changed the way creators get paid without notice before so you’re probably right everyone is safe. Google isnt pinching pennies and everything is fine
