Well I don't want to make this as a pay per use server. As I don't want to get sued lol :X.
But if someone is interested in a private server, I'm open to that idea as well.

This server will benefit users on TvPad 1/2/3 the most.
TvPad 4 now has 2 apps that run on auto DNS : YueTV & 36TV that covers 70% of user's needs for streaming media.
@Padman, how are you going to prevent paid users sharing the DNS address to others? I am willing to pitch (money or other resource) for this project since I benefited so much from this forum.
Please PM me if you want to discuss this offline.
Thanks.

But for the interest for the Patreon page, the only way for me to not get sued is to leave it public. As I don't want to leave an impression that I'm selling a service.

It's either
A) The crowd get together and get a server up
or
Small group of people get a private server
Whether it is A or B, I'm not looking to sell a DNS service.

In one current sales add, they tell you the box won't work in China because it's blocked.
1) The authentication servers are FQDN and are hardcoded onto each firmware.
2) Once those FQDN were seized, TVPad's werent' able to authenticate anymore
3) The oversea server works because they are their own authoritative nameserver so they resolved those seized domains to the proper updated IPs

I will spread the news to a few of my friends who don't follow this forum.

If you post it publicly what is stopping them from shutting it down? You would need to do it over and over again.
