Hey man,

A couple notes:

1. You might want to be careful with using the name DNews because I know that Digital Discovery had a previous Youtube channel called DNews (now called Seeker) so I would review copyright laws with it.
2. Bringing in mainstream content would work fabulously with Dtube if the content was centralized and controlled but with this platform being the opposite, you can run into issues of monetization. If I were to post the entire Frozen Disney movie and earn revenue from it (even if its cryptocurrency), there is liability for copyright because they earned money off of their content.
3. When it would come into lawsuit, how would courts define the proper fine or punishment for it? Although we put set dollar amounts on our videos representing SBD or Steem, how would it translate to fiat? If the currency grows in value, does it escalate with it or is it based on the snapshot of when it was finished monetizing?

Overall, the platform would have to naturally and organically grow similar to how youtube started in its early days. Basic original content would have to be uploaded and influencers would have to come out to represent the platform. When it comes to legal matters, youtube took on the role of having the influencers become part of the organization since they have the ability to control their content. In this case, I think individual posters would have to take on copyright issues individually since the platform is not directly controlling the content. The people are.

Just putting it out there
