Book marked and will take a look later today, on a quick review it seems to be mostly for video up loaders, but I do watch videos sometimes.

The "big deal" is that it's not "just a website".
THETA is a protocol.
It's a decentralized host that can be leveraged by any company, like a sort of decentralized AWS.
It could be used by NETFLIX to host their content.
It could be used by TUBI or HULU and it would save them tons of money.
One of the key features I like is that if I donate to a streamer, then my name gets shown on their homepage (just below the featured video) with the top ten ranked contributors.
Also, the streams are super-fast, much faster than odysee/lbry which are often very slow to start and sometimes glitchy.

it also has fully-integrated subscriptions (including switches for "subscriber only content") which puts PATREON out of business.
it also has fully-integrated NFT creation function, which lets you create your own NFTs for free.
AND it rewards you for watching videos.
It's an attention economy.
I will certainly be taking a look at it. If I can be paid to watch what I like then that sounds good.
and you can blog on both THETA and odysee/lbry.
ok, it looks like THETA has a 244 character limit (like twitter), so, a little annoying, but odysee/lbry does NOT have a character limit.
hell, i'll personally pay you to watch and or repost any of my vids!!
theta, odysee, lbry. Noted.
Thanks for the movie sample. While -of course- it's not sky-high-resolution & so on, I watched few pieces, tried seeking backnforth, it's pretty smooth and responsive. Definitely worth investigating. Many thanks again.
that clip is an old vhs transfer. to see some hi-rez, check out some of the gamer streams.
yeah, i only found out about it because i was researching storj and one of the articles mentioned World Poker Tour is using THETA to stream their events.
i couldn't believe it.
nobody's talking about this, and it's already live.
storj :D I remember this one when I researched and played with BURST and BHD and other proof-of-capacity coins (actually, a much more reasonable idea than proof-of-work). Thanks for pointing me to that https://ont.io/ even more to read and think about. Not today though, my mental batteries are too low now :)
awesome. thanks for taking a look. let me know if you find anything interesting.
