DTube is the first decentralised video hosting site to ACTUALLY happen, thanks to the amazing work of @heimindanger

Check it out here: https://dtube.video

We have been waiting a long time now for SteemQ to deliver, but alas they did not.

To quote the words of heimindanger himself, 

*"the SteemQ project announcement made almost five thousand dollars in rewards, but never got released and ended up being rebranded - It's still not functional after more than a year, and even the current alpha uses a back-end server for everything and is therefore still centralized. I am sure I wasn't the only person disappointed by SteemQ."*

## As a filmmaker
I was indeed disappointed with the lack of progress towards a decentralised equivalent to YouTube.

But now we finally have it!!!!

I posted my first film there a few hours ago: https://dtube.video/v/samstonehill/9sfwlk7d

...and whilst I am still getting to grips with a few things (or potential glitches with the voting percentage function?) it is really easy to use and understand.

Thank you @heimindanger for your hard work and I look forward to uploading there on a daily basis.

## The One Question...

If the 25% fee is paying for the storage of this content, a 1hour film which makes $1 payout is giving so much less than a 30sec film which makes $1000 payout.

Yet the 1 hour film is clearly using more storage space.

Am I understanding this correctly?

I would appreciate it if anyone who understands this better than myself could clarify this point.

## If this is the case...
Well, it would seem to me that a better system needs to be found.
