Here are three hard truths shaping whether this fast-rising format becomes a sustainable business: 1. Scale Is Easy. Sustainability Isn’t. Explosive growth is masking weak monetisation models... 2. Oversupply Is Killing Discoverability Hundreds of daily releases mean visibility—not production—is the real challenge… 3.
