Ok i see what you mean regarding the first two points, but in regard of quality i was speaking about the type of content that would uploaded to the video platform..you could never know for certain what type of content you will attract unless you try it out.

How about this: A broadcasting / video platform that would encrypt the content and the user would have to pay in steem to unlock it. This could be an interesting niche.. could have all sorts of stuff from budget movies to live broadcasts, to tutorial videos people could make good money off.. you would still be able to vote and comment and still earn too.

Its kind of like flipping youtube on its head.. youtube somewhat charges the content maker (advertising and so on) while providing the content to the user for free...

What you would essentially do is allow people to upload their content entirely free of charge (no advertising, rank will be based on votes to ensure quality) and forcing them to charge viewers even a fraction of a dollar to view their content...

This would encourage people to upload content in order to earn, but also ensure ithe content is of good quality in order to rank well..

this would make a new creation we have never seen before.. a youtube where everyone is participating, while those not uploading would have to pay a fee to view (since they dont have any steem) this would pump good money into the eco system, the more quality content is uploaded on the steemtube site, the whole community benefits..

p.s (followed you)
