CYBERSPACE—As staying at home and quarantining is being advised around the world, ManyVids has issued a statement on “the best way to stave off cabin fever.” The adult site suggests that to make the best of physical social distancing and connect to other people, performers can cam on the MV Live streaming platform.
“Whether you’re a performer or a fan, the real-time interactive streaming on MV Live presents a unique outlet to make the most of social distancing,” the company suggests. “For those of you who aren’t familiar, webcamming is a live performance where a content creator can broadcast via their device right from the comfort of their own home or the environment of their choosing. Each stream has a chat room where fans can chat with the performer, and with each other, and make requests of the performer.”
The streams are free to watch, but anyone watching can tip content creators in tokens so that they can generate revenue from their shows. Plus, creators can also offer “Private Shows” as an option for individual viewers to go into an intimate one-on-one performance at a price that the content creator sets.
MV Live is a platform that can be used for both sexual and nonsexual content. Users can live stream whatever they want and bring people together and relieve their loneliness—be it by playing music, cooking demonstrations, video gaming, et cetera. ManyVids does not require any sexual shows. Their mantra: “Your shows, your decision.”
Plus, it can be a way of generating revenue while other options are off the table due to the lockdown. The company states that top earners on MV Live make $5,000 to $40,000 USD.
MV Live is just one option—with MV, creators have many outlets for monetizing and distributing their content. Users can upload and sell vids (and the vids can be anything from vlogs to adult entertainment to short films) and with the subscription fan club MV Crush Club, influencers can generate revenue through interacting with fans and giving them an exclusive ongoing feed of pics, vids and text.
According to the ManyVids team, the MV Community has communicated they would like to have category tags for the creative and informative vids they upload and share on the ManyVids eCommerce platform. Therefore, the following vid tags are now active and content creators can tag any content related to any of the following:
• Coronavirus
• Covid-19
• Corona
• Virus
• Masks
• Quarantine
• Gloves
• Isolation
