So I am completely ignorant about this, but... Would just hosting torrents to their own content work? I know the revenue might not be the same, but, would it be possible to keep it going around?
Yea, revenue certainly wouldn't be the same. As in, there would be no revenue.
Ad revenue. They'd still get sales through their store, as well as sponsor revenue.
People with enough of a viewership would still be offered sponsorship for videos. Like YouTubers who do their own ads in videos.
