There are contributors that do this because they simply enjoy doing it. The fact that someone has found my clip amongst millions of other clips and bought it, fills me with joy. It's that simple, in my case that is!

Yeah, that's what I was afraid of. No need felt for monetizing your efforts, just have fun! Just price your content at $0 and enjoy!

I was looking at your current pricing and it seems you've upped both HD and 4k bigtime. That's a good thing. How's that working for you?

Oh yes, I'll certainly continue to enjoy what I'm doing. I haven't got one single clip priced at $0, not sure what your point is to be honest!

OK, $49 minus P5's cut is nearly $0 in my book. I can't really describe getting a licensing fee from a buyer being "filled with joy", it's just a business transaction for me. Check out my pricing: that's not seeking joy, that's getting a payment that's worth my time to go out shooting

You've got less than 1000 clips online, what exactly are you expecting? And if it seriously bothers you that much, why are you here? Just curious... it used to get my blood pressure up when others sold their clips for next to nothing or sold clips that I felt weren't as good as mine... but I'm old now and I've learned that my health and mental well being are more important than worrying about what others are doing and how all of the sites are screwing us more and more.
Things are only going to get worse for producers and the only way to make money is a combination of quantity and quality. So I spend more time producing new clips and working on my camera/animating skills.

What was I expecting? To tell you the truth, when I began uploading clips here (I do a lot of other stills photography for money, first time trying to monetize video) I never imagined anyone would go through the entire process only to have fun. Making money was of no concern, it was all about the fun. I still can't believe that but it's certainly true here at P5
I don't worry about it as much as it seems to have bothered you, I'm just stating that it's a continual source of amazement not of worry
