dtube.video is our first video hosting on Steem! Explore the big questions and opportunities in this post created with https://dtube.video/.
Watch My First DTube Video!
DTube takes 25% of author rewards which on a $110 post with $10 to curators would be $25. Thank you to @heimindanger for getting DTube live as shared at https://steemit.com/video/@heimindanger/introducing-dtube-a-decentralized-video-platform-using-steem-and-ipfs.
In this video I explore some big questions we have to face right away which I also typed out here!
- Will we upvote videos that are definitely or probably violating copyright law thereby placing everyone on Steem at risk of attack from criticism (free publicity) or law suits? Within the first week we can already see a music video uploaded along with many full length movies including The Matrix, Die Hard, and other classics I love! With the earnings many of these are getting, a lot more are sure to follow! I personally think copyright needs to go and no one should have the right to claim exclusive rights to anything in their work. For example, I never file copyright claims against other creators and would not flag any of my videos uploaded to DTube. Not everyone else sees it that way ...
- How far will we go with our uploads to DTube? Will we start grabbing our favorite pornos and uploading them alongside videos of violence and hate speech? Will DTube be a magnet for that which is banned on YouTube? I personally am against any censorship matched with education. Censorship is always about control and power while requiring shame to operate.
- Is giving 25% of our author rewards fair or will we ask for or accept a lower or higher fee? 25% seems fair to start but what if it takes off? What if the price of Steem is 10x now or 10%? Will the fee be flexible and transparent to us at all times? YouTube currently takes 43% on ad revenue assuming they let us monetize the video at all which makes the DTube fee look great to me!
Thank you very much for reading my first post on DTube and seeing my first exclusive video here! Would you upvote for more because 25% of the rewards go to DTube?
Love,
Jerry Banfield
PS: Witness votes are the most powerful votes we make on Steem because one vote for a witness lasts indefinitely! Would you please make a vote for jerrybanfield as a witness or set jerrybanfield as a proxy to handle all witness votes at https://steemit.com/~witnesses because when we make our votes, we feel in control of our future together?
Thanks for trying out @dtube @jerrybanfield I hope you didn't get any major problems for uploading or anything. The video played just fine on my side.
You are right about what you say about copyrights, apart from the dtube 'hosting'. DTube does not need a hosting to run ;)
Also, I can now say for sure as the first beneficiary rewards are coming in, but it is definately 25% of the author rewards. So basically remove 25% from the displayed number for curators, then remove 25% again for dtube, then the author gets the rest. Beneficiary rewards are 100% SP (we don't get any SBD). Hope that clarifies it :D

indiependently to what anyones view is on copyright, we know the Feds ( FBI etc) take it extremely seriously and last thing we want is to attract their attention already and see them crack down on the site or its developers.

@heimindanger trying out Dtube and noticed sometimes the video plays and sometimes it doesn't, and sometimes the snap image shows or it doesn't, is this due to the curator? If so, I think my first two videos are with a curator that is not fast since nothing is displaying. Can I become a curator to help speed things up?

It's time to stop allowing the old Grey man of the video sharing service to dictate terms to creators. Allowing YouTube and its model of flagging for copyright infringement has no place in the decentralized space for us content creators.
As for revenue share, as long as the transparency is kept as it is I'm all for giving the dtube coder a slice.
I'm just glad to have somewhere to park my videos off of the dead YouTube.

@jerrybanfield Thanks for sharing about Dtube. Great site and idea, except that for the life of me, I cannot upload a simple 10 minute video to it. Keeps saying "failed to fetch". Do you need a certain level of usable SP to do anything on Dtube? Or do I need to sign up on some other website to get Dtube to work for me? IMHO Censorship and Youtube's monopoly is not the way to go forward, but we also do not want a platform that turns into a cesspool of bad content and copyrights quagmire.

Really glad you're on Dtube Jerry! Dtube along with Zappl very well could make Steemit the #1 media delivery method in the world. We'll have quite a few users in the future never even visit the Steemit.com website that will be actively posting/using the Steem block chain. Simply incredible!
The copyright issue is serious though. This is something that needs addressed going forward b/c we don't want a few users causing massive issues for Steem in the future. We have a great community and incredible technology driving Steem, let's keep the momentum going and don't make foolish short term decisions regarding posting things are direct violations of copyright law.

Great video Jerry, always nice to see you in action. I think that @heimindanger did us a good favor (and himself too) by showing the world how great steem blockchain is and thus we all should send in our support by using Dtube (pls see my latest blog post about steem block chain, its low price and taking advantage of it). However, this will certainly lead to video plagiarism as there are no mechanism to catch plagiarists using Dtube however with time, our dear @cheetah and its team will start taking action too-hopefully. Price is ok for now however should come down when the platform kicks off by fall this year. Thanks for sharing and have a blessed weekend.

The same as a teenager "wildin out" when they finally get a moment of freedom from an overbearingly strict parent, I can absolutely see all sorts of nefarious videos showing up just because the uploader can.
There can be freedom and structure and that's a great conversation to have. I don't let my 2 and 4 year old do whatever they want because they don't always make choices in the best interest of their safety and future well being. I also don't put them on a leash or keep them from going outside just because they might get hurt.
I'm not equating Steemit/ Dtube users with toddlers. I'm suggesting that all humans are better able to thrive in a structured but not overbearing/ oppressive environment.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

Yes we all do need structure and the challenge it seems now is that the structure we have now is breaking the entire world down and few of us are trusted to make adjustments to the existing structure. Our master plan must be to collapse the entire mental structure of the world if we are to build a better one in its place.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

I think the real debate about a lot of this is which humans get to decide what the structure is for everyone. Right now, its greedy profiteers, not people looking out for the best of humanity. I think the Steem community will eventually weed them out passively by not voting on it, hopefully

Hey Jerry, glad to see that you got it to work as I remember you were having issues with it crashing during the upload, if memory serves me. I'm glad you took the time to explain how Dtube works, money wise. I hadn't seen anyone talk about the fact that they receive 25%. I think they should lower that a good bit, at least in the beginning, to ensure that people use it and don't stick with YouTube purely for monetary advantages. Just some thoughts from this guy on the Internet tho. Thanks for the great, thought-provoking article!

Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the percentage received! YouTube currently takes my total earns of $3,174.13 a month and reduces them to $1,802.75 for my actual payout which is a 43% fee!

Jerry, you bring up a lot of great points regarding the rules and what could possible be uploaded to DTube. Now, I know that like Steem, DTube is going to be a great content platform and be more progressive than most. However, we want to make sure that nothing bad happens to the platform, so I think that copyright has to be enforced.
As far as the porn, SteemIt has an adult section so I don't see an issue with having an adult section on DTube.
My take on the percentage that DTube takes out of author rewards, I have no problem with that at all. Even if they took 50%, you would probably still make MUCH more than you would by posting your video to other platforms such as YouTube, DailyMotion, Vimeo, etc. I think that percentage will also help the platform to improve and grow as it can be used to make improvements and also for advertising.
I actually just found out about DTube today, and yours is the first video I watched! It's pretty exciting as I think it can only add value to Steem in general and grow the entire platform.

I'm just sharing my opinion and it can be a wrong one of course, but I believe that placing copyright protected material would be rather good, because it will make the platform more attractive and popular (assuming popular interesting content will be reposted)
I'm strictly against censorship and I believe that a sane grown up person should be able to deal with pornos and hate speech on the internet. And I hope that steemit will be a platform for grown up people first.
It should be mandatory though to mark those kind of materials as NSFW or even NSFL and have them hidden by default (you should be registered and have NSFW or NSFL activated to see them)
There is nothing wrong with pornos and especially there is nothing wrong with people sharing their hate towards someone.
No opinion here.

You continue to inspire me and others, Jerry. I did a video of DTube and prominently featured you and this video you did. Hope you enjoy it. Any feedback from you, my friend, is welcome and appreciated.

I am very excited about this. I have been on Steemit for about a month. I mostly post photos and videos. I have made about $100 on Steemit. But a platform for videos that earn Steem is amazing. And hopefully it will not have the seven day content cliff that we deal with here.
I was just shooting pics and video today to post here.

These are some great questions @jerrybanfield infact I wanted to cover these in my own video a few days ago but haven't got round to it as it probably wont be really seen by anybody as with steem only those with alot of power seem to get mostly noticed, regardless I wondered myself if I posted some gaming content which I know on youtube the creatures take a percent away I cant help but wonder if people would eventually get into trouble for posting something like that as some companies are crazy strict on others using their content without charging you fees.

I think dtube just needs some minor interface improvements, use a script to suggest recommended or similar videos and some performance improvements and it will be a great video platform.
It is very new but has a big potential but I think dtube is still uncooked

Thanks for the breakdown, How long does it take to upload a video? I know it can take a pretty good while on youtube but there isn't a status bar. I'm also hoping Dtube won't become a cesspool of videos deemed to seedy for Youtube, here's hoping!

Violation of copyright is not welcome. If the original author or creator allows free sharing then it is okay to share other's videos. BTW, happy with the existence of such a olatfork

Interessting points, I personally think that it may took a while till DTube become to something like YouTube, but I hope it a little bit. The Earnings on YouTube are that low in the moment and their is this big advertising Problem wich many YouTubers have. That many companys just advertise on nice, happy, and friendly videos. I personally would really like it to see what would happend if somebody like Pewdiepie create extra/only content on DTube. That would let explode nuber of People who are interesstet in cryptocurrecies an really would help steemit to grow.

Thank you @jerrybanfield , and this is a will be the best writing. In this video I explore some big questions we have to face right away which I also typed out here!
Will we upvote videos that are definitely or probably violating copyright law thereby placing everyone on Steem at risk of attack from criticism (free publicity) or law suits? Within the first week we can already see a music video uploaded along with many full length movies including The Matrix, Die Hard, and other classics I love! With the earnings many of these are getting, a lot more are sure to follow! I personally think copyright needs to go and no one should have the right to claim exclusive rights to anything in their work. For example, I never file copyright claims against other creators and would not flag any of my videos uploaded to DTube. Not everyone else sees it that way ...
How far will we go with our uploads to DTube? Will we start grabbing our favorite pornos and uploading them alongside videos of violence and hate speech? Will DTube be a magnet for that which is banned on YouTube? I personally am against any censorship matched with education. Censorship is always about control and power while requiring shame to operate.
Is giving 25% of our author rewards fair or will we ask for or accept a lower or higher fee? 25% seems fair to start but what if it takes off? What if the price of Steem is 10x now or 10%? Will the fee be flexible and transparent to us at all times? YouTube currently takes 43% on ad revenue assuming they let us monetize the video at all which makes the DTube fee look great to me!

Jerry, you are such an inpsiring creator. You explain your thoughts intellectually and ask thought provoking questions that get us discussing these things and not comment battling, name calling, etc.
I personally share similar feelings about how Youtube runs and who gets to censor what content, not to mention content creators get the lowest pay and they're the reason these sites exist to begin with.

I too am excited about Dtube and look forward to uploading my videos there. 25% seems a bit steep but considering what youtube would pay me for my content it seems fair. I disagree with your views on copyright. File sharing is one thing but having people earn money from your content doesn't seem right and can draw some very bad attention to a new video network. I don't know what the answer is but I won't be voting for illegal content.

@jerrybanfield I think your awesome brother ! I'm excited about dtube and I am as well concerned about copyright infringement as my dad is a patent attorney and has drilled in the importance of what that all means my whole life. I find your content very very informative and helpful. I really hope I can achieve some of the success you've gotten to through all this! I too live in Florida strangely enough and I'd be really curious about joining the next steemit meetup if that's a possibility . I saw @terryblock 's video and instantly wish I had known prior . I just signed up for steemit a couple days about. Anyway keep on doing what your doing !

You are right about what you say about Copyrights 1, apart from the dtube 'hosting'. DTube does not need a hosting to run;)Also, I can now say for certain as the first Beneficiary 2 rewards are coming in, but it is definately 25% of the Author 3 rewards. So basically take away 25% from the put on view number for person taking care of MUSEUM, then take away 25% again for dtube, then the Author 3 gets the rest. Beneficiary 2 rewards are 100% SP (we do not get any SBD). Hope that makes clear it:D
