Through the years, I came across quite a bit of content that seems to have decently high production value, so the ideas that are shared are quite good, but some of the more sustainable podcasts have been those that just riff on a regular basis, whether it is daily or weekly or some other quasi-regular period of time.
You know, that makes me wonder about why exactly the production was so high on the first video (and the teaser, too). I have to assume that there was some money spent to make it what it was, because that was definitely no crappy camera that was used, and the vid was put together with some effects that must have taken some talent--and unless someone is volunteering to provide their services and equipment, this is going to be an ongoing investment on the part of the forum.
So what I'm wondering now is what the plans are to monetize and expand the channel. That has to be the eventual goal, because I don't think Ninja-dude and whoever else is involved would keep making high-quality content for a very small, specialized audience (as evidenced so far by the subscriber count, which is 64 as I write this). And it isn't likely that strictly forum-related topics would attract a broader viewership base. Am I way off base there or what?
Honestly, I hope the channel does attract more viewers and subscribers and that it draws in more people to the forum. Hey, with more eyeballs here seeing signatures perhaps campaign rates will go up accordingly. Lol.
