This is just wrong. Some of you all are just canabalizing the industry in hopes of quick traffic and short term gains and zero concern for tomorrow.

Take a clue from the fishing or farming industry. We need to think of sustainability. We must remember the past. We have done this over and over again. We take and take until there is nothing to take. We need to think about tomorrow more than today.

In this case it is fucking super painful. The original poster is asking for 10 minutes of niche/microniche content, content that still sells today because it is rare and hard to come by. Any sponsor that is providing this needs to be ashamed. It is like giving someone licenses to hunt endangered animals.

I will actually have no choice but to boycott any sponsor that gives this out. No damn reason to promote them plus they will see that in order to gain one affiliate they could be losing another.

100% agree with you, but for every one webmaster only posting 1 to 5min vids, there are 10 that are trying to outdo the others with 10 to 40min videos.
