Q: STORAGE I don't think I need storage.
I stream live (OBS to Restream currently) so Videolinq won't force me to store a live on their servers will they? I really don't need that as I save locally when streaming. Its possible I will need to upload a "live" style prerecord if I go on holidays, is that what the storage is for? I'm very interested to buy 3 codes for the Chat app that's coming but I am confused about what I will be charged extra for (I do 2 livestreams a week, my tutorials are 1/2 to 1 hour long, I save locally and don't need a studio as I have figured out my OBS streamdeck thingie. thanks!)

The advantage of using the storage bin option (1st article) and paying for the associated nominal fee is ability to use the scheduler when you go on holiday. The system will broadcast your scheduled event hands-free.
If you stream files with OBS 1-code will suffice. To add the chat option buy 3-codes.
SilkCharmThank you for your prompt and thoughtful response. I don't have an issue with paying for additional services. However I just noticed as I went to buy 3 codes, that I have to join AppsumoPlus to get access so that would be too much for 3 codes plus a service I wouldn't use. Sorry! I'll pass and stick with OneStream and Restream. Cheers.
