Great, now it's Russian roulette every time you hit that pause button. ¡BOOM ZERODAY MALWARE!

It looks like it's currently out of my price bracket. I guess I need to grind more on getting more subscribers before I can have a budget to spend on a platform for archival purposes.

Thanks for the suggestion but I'm currently underemployed and this cost is more than I can afford at this current point in my life. Any monthly costs to me ultimately need to be offset by subscription revenue and i just don't have a large enough of a base on twitch to cover this cost yet.

I didn't know that was a thing. Where can I look for potential clients to purchase said stock footage?

I don't watch TV or movies anymore. The last film I remember watching, I was in a military PAX (PAssenger Transport) terminal awaiting a bird to take this princess to another castle, and some troll thought it'd be a good idea to leave the movie, "Black Hawk Down" playing for everyone waiting for their bird to touch down. It wasn't looking good for the protagonists and I had to leave before the movie was over. I then later experienced extreme turbulence due to a sandstorm and we had to make an unscheduled landing (luckily at somewhere I also had equipment to service) but during the whole ordeal I thought I was going to die. I then made the realization that watching TV/Movies just raises my cortisol levels, and why am I doing that to myself? I don't want that. I stopped watching TV and Movies after that. I just create content now. I only listen to music for my media consumption. I just don't get people that need to watch horror to be terrified. I don't need horror to be terrified. I can just, turn on the TV, or, go outside!

Indeed, I'm a broke wook looking to get paid. The getting paid aspect isn't a hard requirement but I would like that option, /if it's available/. The primary concern is archiving old content. I can work on monetization through live streaming or other means. As it stands I can either let content become dust blown in the wind or it can be archived somewhere. Twitch highlights (as of now) seem to last forever, I guess I can always make a highlight starting at t=+00:10 and ending at t=-00:10 but IDK if I'll eventually get an email from twitch saying that I'm "using too much storage".

 

I’m in the process of divorcing google so YT is a HARD no for me. Google had demonetized my friend’s viral video (close to a decade ago) of his 5 1/4" floppy drives playing toccata & fugue in d minor over MIDI and it left a FOWL taste in my mouth. Most of my videos are 45-90 minutes in length. Night time videos are 2.5~gb. My day time videos are 8-10~gb. I’m currently looking at playeur vs odesee but playeur has a much lower file limit. I’d like to do higher quality videos but it looks like I’ll be limited to 720p content even though the original is in 1080p. I am looking to monetize my content as well. What platforms do I have available in this day and now?
