Hi,

I have been thinking about making, lets say, 15 minutes VR experience short movie. I am looking to finish it with Brigade 3.0 when it comes and release it in x.io environment. Okay, the rendering fee to Amazon is 0.05$ minute and 15 minutes would be 75 cents. How can I make the clients to pay first few bucks for the movie and then the render fee? Or, should I make a rental store of my own to my site, and charge all at once and organize the payment system so that the fee for rendering would be automatically sent to Amazon / x.io? I guess, that is quite difficult to set up for one show only and to get people to even find my site in the first place.. So, what if we see Otoy putting up a market space, where the content creators would send their package, set the desired price tag, Otoy would then distribute the fees to Amazon, to artist, to themselves accordingly? Or, even better idea, Otoy would make a deal with Steam and integrate x.io with Steam platform? How about that? If something goes viral there, it is thousands of purchases in one minute.

Well, just few thoughts what I had in mind.. What do you think?
