I have courses on Udemy, my own site and elsewhere. I don't think DTube will disrupt at the present moment.
Most courses take quite a while before it gets traction. Courses can be sold for a long time, sometimes several years, and by refreshing content. A 1 week payout is just too short.
The student experience is better on purpose built sites.
I agree, we're not there yet but I think it's an intriguing thought to have a section of @dtube or a new app linked to the STEEM blockchain that is specifically designed for online courses. Participants can "pay" with upvotes (maybe there is a min cost of entry in STEEM - no fees :)) and the course host can reward useful comments and input with votes too. I think/hope it's a matter of time.

thank you for pointing me to this post. Like @jameswoo I also have courses everywhere but I believe steem has awesome potential. Love this one "STEEMinar " I tried Dlive for a live webinar only the other week. The 7 day payout is a problem, and I think what I am doing to over come this might work for me, but it would not work on scale

Haha, thanks. Some random names in there. Plenty to play with.
The 7 day is the biggest prob but it looks like you have a decent work around. It would be great to make steem a decentralised learning and education platform.

you might be interested in some brainstorming on the idea? I know @jefpatat also likes the idea.
