Might do a Patreon exclusive livestream in roughly 30 minutes. Our Patreon is in danger of being shut down for a VERY weird reason. I want to address it and discuss it with our Patrons and figure out what kind of a solution we can come up with.

I'll post the livestream link here when I go live. 5:15PM PST thats roughly 35min from now!

The livestream is still ongoing and unfortunately I have to leave, but I think the only thing left is to make a decision. PD has been talking to Vimeo staff after they contacted PD a week or so ago. The patreon videos use up way too much of Vimeo's bandwidth, and Vimeo wants PD to upgrade since Vimeo isn't meant to be a "streaming platform" like YouTube or similar sites. Currently we are in the top 1% of of users on vimeo who use the most bandwidth. Every month we use 6000 to 8000 GB of bandwith. During the particularly "hot month" where SM blocked the NCT reaction, 30000 GB of bandwidth was used. There are three options prompted by Vimeo, but PD is looking into other options. These are 1. Get monthly usage down to 1600 or less. 2. Upgrade to Vimeo Enterprise plan (business plan), but it costs $5000 dollars yearly. 3. Join OTT Vimeo plan, where they help you develop an app through which your users can stream. This costs $1000 but there are also additional fees. PD has just said they don't plan to do the OTT plan. They are considering option 2 if it is a payment plan, as well as other options. I'm sure they will update with what they have chosen, but the current format cannot stay as it is.

Option 2 sounds the smartest but that price point makes my stomach hurt. Sorry yall are having to deal with this PD...
