There was a similar idea but with images instead of video some 10 years ago [0]. Most pixels were sold within 6-7 months or so.<p>[0]: <a href="http://www.milliondollarhomepage.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.milliondollarhomepage.com/</a>
Were the Reddit videos really paid for? Pretty awesome if so, but would also be a very good way to (apologies in advance for using this term) "growth hack" if you just threw them in for free yourself ;)
I guess it would be more interesting to watch than the film Empire by Andy Warhol. It is just a camera pointed at the empire state building for 8 hours. Then there is his 5-hour film of someone sleeping.
Cool/funny idea. Why are there two videos on the YouTube channel, and where did its current content come from? It all looks like commercial video.
