Hey guys, I have a basic question.
When we click play on a video, it automatically downloads the video in our computer.
Will we have to download every single video we watch?
If so, we will all need many Terabytes of capacity to be able to use the platform frequently?
I know the idea behind LBC is decentralized hosting and sharing of content, so I understand the principle, but this technical aspect can be a big turn off for some people?
That's the current functionality now - you can always delete it from your downloads folder. It also says the "shared hosting data" (which is the same size as the video) in your blobs folder (in lbrynet
https://lbry.io/faq/lbry-directories).
I could see this being an option in the future.
