Well that's why it could be voluntary to pay for storage - I think we have taken for granted the Youtube model where they foot the bill for any amount of insane video storage - and it's proven to be a rather shoddy business model as they have had to try to monetize their site at all opportunities, and they still dont turn that much profit.

Well the concept is simple, we have an option to pay maybe 1 steem per so much storage space - I dont know what this would cost to pay a server but basically i figure if you made videos everyday you could compress them before uploading and probably pay 1-5 steem per month to store a months worth of vids...
They only play for about a week or so - it depends how many requests there are - more requests and it will be available longer but the more time passes they sort of get 'buried'
