I looked over some pricing strategies out there. Things are getting a lot cheaper these days, but not cheap enough. Is anyone interested in a subscription account which offers access to fast full length full quality videos? We could setup our own YouTube or Archive.org like site which doesn't have a time length or file size length, and wouldn't re-encode videos on us, and also offer high speeds. We just need to pay for it. Say $5 a month, and you'd be allowed to stream (or download) 20GB of video? Anyone interested?

I'm for it if it can replace Archive.org as a download option, but I am worried over the fact that a majority of visitors that we seem to get are liable to have no income (Mostly the 13-17 range of visitors). This is based purely on YouTube insight data, however.

Well, we can go with other numbers too. $2 a month for 5GB or something.

I just saw this topic again after all this time... *takes a peek at every Publisher's uncapped YouTube account*... I get the feeling that the practicality of this plan has worn off.
