Just to try it out, would this be an example of the kind of result you'd see at Archive.org?

Pretty much, I was more thinking about these: https://archive.org/details/lets-play

But, yes. And there's already at least some version of Big Buck Bunny up there, so it's not like there isn't Blender content in the Archive.

That's pretty neat. I wonder what happens if it starts to being used like youtube. I see the top LP has 37k views, that's about as much as a video from a medium tier youtuber.

The cost of storing/processing/serving videos is quite high.

On a side note, I have finally gotten youtube red in my country and I immediately signed on. Will it send money to the "demonetised" videos that can't have adds or are they screwed out of youtube red money as well?

I was expecting some crappy 90s interface that was just a static listing of links to download videos or something like that, but this actually looks pretty good.

Isn't it nice when your expectations are exceeded? But seriously, Archive.org has done a lot in the last few years to improve its multimedia streaming - take a look at some of the music, radio shows, and audiobooks they have up there.

Not to mention integrated WebApp DosBOX.
