The cost of the monthly bill almost covers the encoding cost for each user. The fee goes to support the platform. If you're not paying for the product, you are the product. Youtube offers "free" storage because they are a big data farmer that operates at a loss each year.

We are offering you a better solution, and in the future, our users will be paid to watch via ad dollars. We are still in alpha (says beta but really we are still alpha) - but at the end of the day our goal is to have must users being net positive at the end of each month via their interaction and time spent on the platform.

Hopefully you will pay the creators to create, before you pay the consumers to consume!
And before you pay the creators to create, you have to stop charging them to create.
When you can do that, you can move on toward paying consumers to consume.

We are very early beta, but the vision is coming together nicely. We offer a professional high grade video hosting platform where the videos are hosted forever. If we did not charge, we would have been forced to close the doors. Video hosting is extremely expensive. If you're not paying for the product, you are the product.
With that said, many creators find they earn much more then they spend on 3speak, and for us being in beta, that is a good sign. When the ad dollars start to roll in, most creators should be net + ROI if they are brining in eyeballs.

Has it been tried with curators earning more than half? Reason I ask is cause I feel like on YouTube there is many times more watchers, than creators. So wouldn't it bring in a lot more viewers, leaving only quality content creators to make content? I feel it would help lessen the low quality posts even more.
