I think this could hurt the tubes as well, as surfers are now used to full length videos, and if the tubes start to get filled with promo videos or ads, they will simply go somewhere else. I know I would.
I'm just commenting on your second point because I think those are all valid concerns from your perspective. I'd still encourage you to take the demo to learn a bit more about it or at least be in touch so when the # of tubes is worth it to you, you can be contacted.

Regarding the second point. Worst case scenario it doesn't convert & you prevented your full length video from being viewed & instead showed a trailer or a shorter clip that branded the content the way you want it branded.

Best case scenario, people actually get creative & optimize how they advertise to a consumer like this (maybe have a tube style tour or sell non-recurring per scene instead of monthly memberships or come up with an idea no one else has yet) and you generate some good money.

In my opinion, any result between the worst case scenario and the best case scenario is still decent. No?
