Yes indeed, plain English. Here's a quote of mine from How Much Have You Spent on Entertainment in Your Lifetime?
Have you ever seen an HBO advertisement? You'll see thirty seconds of clips taken from the content only available on HBO. Nothing about the technology behind HBO. The only thing attracting people to HBO is the content. Youtube, same thing. You went to Youtube because someone shared content from Youtube. Nobody wrote a fascinating Facebook status update detailing how they've found a video platform that has content on it, then went into detail on how they managed to place pixels in front of your eyes; they simply shared the content, you went there, and you being there pays the content producer.
I read it and your "Curators, where are you?" post and wasn't overly surprised at the music curation side of things. One thing I may be looking to at least improve on with our @emalliance (Electronic Music Alliance) page is to get it more active and supporting music producers on steem.
You're right though, who's talking about the tech behind fb (OK apart from all the data mining) and the IT when it's all the entertaining parts of it whether they are cat montages or Ozzy Man Reviews, to films and everything else. It's the content people share links to that just so happens to be uploaded to a specific platform... But the economic models there don't reward consumers.
