RE: DTube: The UDEMY Killer? Steem Opps for Edupreneurs
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.
