i think for the price may be too early, is just one of the last things will be decided i guess
There will be categories for movies. You can buy SD quality, or HD or 4K. The lower the quality the lower the price. This will be attractive for users on mobile devices both in terms of bandwidth saved as well as money.

Hey everyone, I am glad the the discussions here are continuing. I really appreciate your interest and support. Here is some basic information about the paid Movie streaming platform - I am sorry if I am repeating some earlier stated facts, but since it is difficult to reach for previous replies I have chosen to write these again: 1. CryptoFlix will not be a subscription model like Netflix. We want to showcase new movies and TV as well, which is not possible on the subscription model. 2. There will not be advertising on CryptoFlix. 3. The pricing on the CryptoFlix platform will be much more flexible than that of for instance iTunes. We will allow the content owners to have bigger influences over the prices and the data size matters as well. There will likely be regional pricing differences. 4. Part of the development work we have to achieve before launch is the technology to analyze the device and internet speed before suggesting which definition to stream - we call this YourDef. We have experimented with compressing the file size and quality while still ensuring a good quality viewing experience and we are convinced that we can deliver as promised even at low internet speeds. 5. The free content will be sourced from a number of partnerships which are being negotiated. These include state owned TV stations around the world and learning institutions. We will also establish a Charitable Trust where it is possible to donate content as well as money to support the educational cause of CryptoFlix. 6. Regarding the working demo of the platform prior to the ICO, please do not expect this. The design of the current platform sample on our webpage is a good representation of how it will look for users with the convenience and easy menus etc., but before we have finalized the development the YourDef technology we will not have a full working demo ready. That is it for now. Take care everyone and don't forget to sig up for the Early Pre-sale alert on our webpage www.cryptoflix.io. Best, Christian

I would also like to know where that country is most of 3rd world country have a very slow internet connection, streaming movies will sometime took longer waiting than streaming.
The biggest problem might be that they don't always have a steady connection, so once it's loaded the connection might be cut for several minutes/hours Soon Elon Musk will launch its satellites and provide free Internet on the whole planet. At least I read such news about his plans. Well, a product cannot rely on Elon Musk's mood about a sending a satellite and providing free internet to the masses.

Will there be an option for 4k?
It is targeting mostly people which have a slow connection but some may also have a good connection too.

If he says he will make this internet thing happen, than he will make it happen. The questions is when and that will not be this or next year for sure. For this they need to bring up a lot of satellites and SpaceX is still not in the situation to launch rockets weekly. Do not expect this to happen soon.

I think so but probably not for all the content. YourDef is a good idea. You don't need 4k streams on a phone.

For this they need to bring up a lot of satellites and SpaceX is still not in the situation to launch rockets weekly. Do not expect this to happen soon. Aw come on. Ever used ADSL with satellites? Exactly....you dont want to. And Mr. Musk cannot change anything on that technology. Also with the Hyperloop....there are so many costly problems that it just wont happen. Have ever break one of the Hyperloop tubes or a train crashing and you'll have a catastrophe unwitnessed before. What do you think happens when a vacuum tube collapses? Right. That musky man is overhyped and should not be compared with any ambitioned project. I dont say this because I hate him, its quite the other way but I'm baffled how people stumble upon those things and dont even think one step ahead. And there are also good connected datacenters in africa. They dont have the potatoe connection of the average home user in there. Please think twice...

After the platform is released, I guess it would be ideal to conduct an extensive marketing campaign to spread more awareness about this project but I guess the real challenge is implementing its first funded film.Imho.

For examble a mobile device got a lower quality than a TV on streaming. Flexible resolution will be the ideal solution for cryptoflix. Slow connection or small devices will automatically get the low resolutions may acceptable by most users.

They also sell it as advantage to illegal downloaded movies because there is also no flexible resolution possible and complete data is needed e.g. on mobile device.

The whitepaper doesn't mention porn or anything of the sort, so why assume it will have? about piracy, well, there is piracy in netflix for one reason or another, so here, even with the blockchain, will be difficult to avoid, but not impossible.
