What do YOU think?
I have been investigating videos, but videos on Youtube make little economic sense. Unless you all are interested in creating videos for free 
, it costs money to create the videos. And if I put them on Youtube, Google gets to keep something like 95% of the advertising revenue.
If we can find a way to make it work financially, I'm all for it, though!

Interesting comment you have had think about that possibility as well, of course I have thought there might be some very active members who would like to make some videos in the name of WR. What and how exactly I have not the slightest idea. It has been just a simple suggestion.
Maybe we can do it someday. It could be fun to let people record a video about a word or subject that would be useful for other people.
I do not think a word or phrase or even proverb would score. There are many excellent videos of that sort in different languages. I have been thinking more about some linguistic issues. There are some experts here you could decide which topics are most popular here in WR. Maybe something Spanish-English for beginning. Of course in a witty style. Any suggestions?
Any suggestions?For those of you who have access to the Language Lab forum, you might be able to start an informal series there. If it catches on, it could lead to something bigger. Ask the moderators there first, of course!
That is very versatile as well; there’s iTunes, the Podcasts app, Spotify, etc. A podcast is a very good idea.I think most people are rather shy, so perhaps a podcast series would fit better some of our personalities.

As YouTube keeps demonetized videos without explanation.
Videos are only a means to an end. Economically, they don’t generate much ad revenue. However they can get you greater visibility and then you can use this wider customer base to generate more revenue. At least, according to some YouTubers :YouTube looks to demonetization as punishment for major creators, but it doesn’t work
