I think some tubes are starting to see sense, realising that it's better to work with content producers than against them, just a shame it's taken the better part of 5 years to get to this point.

There's more money to be made working with people than against them, very valid point though Dgraves. I suppose the problem is I'm talking about an entirely different business model and for tubes to implement something like that they'd have to do a 180 and start working with people, part of it is probably laziness too.

Easier to upload stolen content and then have paying adverts displayed beside them, it's just a shame because it's a wasted opportunity.



There's a lot of possibilities if this type of setup was implemented (assuming a good % of content producers are onboard)

Pay Per Clip $0.99 or even recurring subscription per niche i.e. $5 per month for each niche and the customer gets access to all updates in that niche.

Give the customer as many options as possible

I'm not sure what the tube owners were thinking when the decided to just take the content rather than try to sell memberships as an affiliate. They're trying to do it now because surfers get use to seeing the same ads or get burned on the products they are selling.

The fucked up part is how many producers are working with the same tube owners that have been fucking the industry for years. Where's the loyalty?

I get contacted all the time from the same shit bags who I send DMCA's to weekly now wanting to do business together. They try to smooth things over by allowing the producer access to police their own content. Here's how to smooth it over, don't steal content in the first place! Start with that and then lets talk business.

The problem with the majority of people that get into this business is they can't see past their own dicks and don't consider the long-term effects. They want quick and easy money.

No other industry fucks over the supplier.
