To me, the only reasonable answer to these news is to stop every activity until things change. It's not a wise business choice to keep going in the dark. So:
- No uploads
- No videos in review
- No login to the site
My opinion is that they still can recover the situation, by allowing us to set our own price on the clips. That way, they'll be like Pond5, 50/50 split and contributor-set price, but with their Marketplace as the big difference.
Right now, 50% on a $49 clip ($43.39 because of tax cut) means $21,70 in the pocket (before my country's taxes). Pond5's equivalent is 50% of $59 = $29,50. I will not compete against myself, so I'm also considering deleting my entire port IF SALES GO UP.
