Why  dont you try and use the program before making such a misguided  post. To view a lbry vid, that vid  must be  dl'd to an end terminal. I love the concept  of cutting out the  middle  man,  but if you look at this  objectivity [which you obviously  arn't] you would  realize  lbry is junk. Regardless of how much users  get paid to "help seed the network", those  vids take up  alot of real estate  on a harddrive... technology as a whole is moving toward   smaller harddrives/ cloud computung/tablets/large cell phones.

A content creator has two goals  1) Exposure 2) Profit .... Even though  YouTube takes large portions of the profits, it's balanced  out  by the billion +  number of users they have.  More users = more  exposure = more money for  creator's.

"you are NOT an "investor"   why do you jump to the  conclusion  that  I was  only reffering   to my btc  investment?  My email to  Reilly  had nothing to do with the few bucks that were spent. I invested my personal time and exposed  my computer to their beta release.  I am a potential  customer .... customers/users =  investors. Where would lbry be without  a user base??? Lbry is a rinky dinky start up... users  are their  bread an butter. The  fact  that its been two weeks and no response   further  cements the notion  that  lbry is unprofessional/amateur.  I hope that im wrong  and  they get their act straightened out, but my gut feeling tells me they  won't.  This  coin is definitely a dump. Invest  in another  coin, there's  alot  of winners out  there  you may be missing out  on ...
