Direct Video is the new video platform Amazon to compete with YouTube

Amazon has just released Video Direct , its new video platform for all "content creators" can upload their works and share them with the world. Basically, it 's their own version of YouTube , and now is available to all users who subscribe to Amazon Prime.

But the video platform YouTube Amazon is different because it is not available for everyone, for subscribers only. It is a kind of mixture of YouTube with Netflix and Vimeo, and offers those responsible for creating videos can choose one of three ways to make money: with ads in their videos and streaming , sharing profits with Amazon shopping They generate their videos or finally collect a portion of the payment of the subscription to Amazon Prime users.

They can also choose a combination of several of these forms, so there are many opportunities for creators to see gains as its content. But of course, we have to wait to see how well (or poorly) functions on the fly.

Video Direct is available immediately to all subscribers of Amazon Prime from this link . Not clear whether it will steal public to YouTube, but it will be another attractive to Prime paying, especially if they start to make own series for Direct style that option already produce for Prime.

Well, the way they make shows is, they make one show. That show's called a pilot. Then they show that show to the people who make shows, and on the strength of that one show they decide if they're going to make more shows.

Like you, I used to think the world was this great place where everybody lived by the same standards I did, then some kid with a nail showed me I was living in his world, a world where chaos rules not order, a world where righteousness is not rewarded. That's Cesar's world, and if you're not willing to play by his rules, then you're gonna have to pay the price.

You think water moves fast? You should see ice. It moves like it has a mind. Like it knows it killed the world once and got a taste for murder. After the avalanche, it took us a week to climb out. Now, I don't know exactly when we turned on each other, but I know that seven of us survived the slide... and only five made it out. Now we took an oath, that I'm breaking now. We said we'd say it was the snow that killed the other two, but it wasn't. Nature is lethal but it doesn't hold a candle to man.

You see? It's curious. Ted did figure it out - time travel. And when we get back, we gonna tell everyone. How it's possible, how it's done, what the dangers are. But then why fifty years in the future when the spacecraft encounters a black hole does the computer call it an 'unknown entry event'? Why don't they know? If they don't know, that means we never told anyone. And if we never told anyone it means we never made it back. Hence we die down here. Just as a matter of deductive logic.
