    I’m very curious about why YouTube allow users to upload what seems like unlimited footage in 4K HDR and keep it around indefinitely. Only guess is they don’t want to miss out on the next big YouTuber. I upload a lot of video for very few views. There is no way in hell that Google make money from my account.

      I’m starting to wonder, what will YouTube do once it stops being remotely sustainable to run?

      Is more efficient video compression being developed faster than people are uploading content?

      Like, at some point, they might just run out of space and will have to purge millions of videos.
