We all realize that Shutterstock opened Pandora's box. The situation in which we earn cents for photos and dimes for videos is not at all stimulating for us authors. I think that we will all, one by one, slowly give up cooperation, not only with them, but with everyone who goes same way. It won't take long and every agency will behave like that� Where is that going? Stock agencies will soon lose professional and creative contributors. They don't seem to care much, because they think they already have enough files without new ones� But when professionals and creatives sink, they won't sink alone. We will pull down a lot of them with us. For a long time, agencies have been advising us to buy cheaper equipment, to use family members and friends as models ... Who will buy top dslrs, top lenses, camcorders, drones, gimbals, software? ... Clearly, we are not the only customers, but sales will surely fall. That is why I invite, primarily Canon and Nikon and other equipment manufacturers, to establish their own photo stock agencies. Agencies that would motivate us authors with their fair prices and revenues, not only to create but also invest in new equipment. At the same time, they will open a new but also protect their old market!  (I sincerely hope they already don't have shares in leading agencies)
