I think we will eventually see VideoHub or something along those lines with a similar hosting platform from the PornHub company, just for non-porn.

Yea, maybe if I see some success on there it could encourage them to try out that model. CreatorHub or something. They do already have all the correct infrastructure for it, payments, subscriptions. If the ads were relevant it would be the perfect platform.

They may try it--they have the expertise, and the infrastructure--but I think they will try to separate the brands, and I doubt they will be able to do better than vimeo.

I'm pretty sure they will, and they already have a lot of experience doing that.

It's incredible how many people in this topic mention "PornHub", but not "MindGeek". They could just start yet another video streaming site and probably most people wouldn't know that it's using the same technology as the top porn sites.
