One of my users pointed out that it would be nice to have a fully off-line capable app. There are a couple barriers to this:

- It would require users to have a p2p system set up to get the video onto their system, which is a configuration barrier for most users.

- It's not clear what the monetization strategy would be to fund the development of the app.

- It would require a large amount of device storage to hold the videos.

But if someone were able to figure those out, they might be able to differentiate from the similar products.

offline would be great, but yeah... I think that is going to be hard and expensive, like you said
