Anyone that distributes licensed material pays the owner. Either personally, or there are radio like services. Social security? Why is that even involved in this conversation about a video platform?

Where does all money come from? Someone makes it up and we all agree on it's value.

Why do you think owning your masters in the music business is a big deal? Because you get paid for those things forever.

Look into the entertainment industry. Once you realize owners want to get paid for their material regardless of "the when" and it's the volume over time.

No need to reach outside of how it all works. Again hive restricts the super creatives with the time. So it's not a soul source of posting. That's ok though.

I'm out.
