"TL;DR"
- OCC & GBC Mega action (100% bonus on any top-up on mediafile and same amount on GBC)
- no reseller rip-off
- OCC translation/dubbing is in early Alpha stage (2-3 more weeks to polish and deliver to production use)
- We need your help to pay server fees
We’ve been on this journey together for over 8 years. Throughout this time, OCC (and then GBC) have grown into more than just platforms - they’ve become a vital resource for our entire community.
All this time, the project was run purely on enthusiasm, and profit was never the top priority. if you scroll down to the footer, u'll always find the message i wrote ages ago explaining why i started this project. I started this project as a hobby, not a biz. it eventually covered its own costs, sometimes a bit more than the server bills, sometimes a bit less. but since i was working full-time, the income was negligible but acceptable. Since last aug i retired and server bills have gotten a bit "heavier" ). Mediafile stash is now ~25tb. Anyone who understands the scale can estimate the monthly cost of renting a servers for such projects/$$$
We haven't uploaded many courses on OCC over the past year. It was due to issues unrelated to the site, like personal commitments and changes in lifestyle, plus some small family challenges... So the OCC project was basically running at a loss last yr since we didn’t have the capacity to roll out new courses. As you've noticed, I've been super active on this for 3 months now: improved download links, made them more informative, and bumped up usability (handy links for crawljobs and shows the duration and size of each file [to finally show people what the real advantage of OCC and mediafiles is: the extremely small file size while maintaining acceptable quality], enhanced curriculum section, link to the original course, many new features in the course card above the article, etc.) We’ve poured everything back into the platform to keep it running. However, this month we’ve hit a serious financial roadblock, and we are currently unable to cover our server costs.
Well, I should probably explain why supporting us right now is beneficial for you, i.e. what will you get?
not great at selling but i've checked out tons of landing pages for online courses so here goes a fun breakdown of bonus 1, bonus 2, bonus 3 and so on, lol )- Double premium on mediafile for any top-up
(100% bonus - double your contribution), if u hit that special button "mega bonus" (If you can't find this button, it means I haven't made it yet. Scroll to the end of this article; there's an instruction on how to get in touch)). For ex., you need premium for a week - hit the button, pay, get it for two weeks instead

- No rip-offs from the reseller here. if you pay via the mega button "paypal mega deal," your price won't randomly jump by 1.5x once you get to the paypal payment page. this applies to local trust resellers too, which are currently available in india, brazil, indonesia, and russia (Note: Please be aware that topping up through main reseller under the PayPal button will not help us resolve the urgent server payment issue at this time. We kindly ask you to contact us directly)
- This promo's for topping up your gbc account. Whatever you add to the mediafile, you'll get an equal amount
added to your gbc balance - The pace/speed at which we are currently uploading courses to OCC will be mirrored on GBC in a couple of weeks, so don’t miss your chance to jump on this fast-moving train

- We're pretty much done implementing an auto translation system
for all content uploaded to mediafile storage, covering ~50 popular languages for subtitles,, plus, the dubbing system
for 26 languages is almost ready, and trust me, yours is included )) idk how the whole system will work rn bc subtitling needs serious resources. It's either a local ai server (I have built two) or buying/wasting API tokens. Anyone into the ai revolution has a rough idea of the cost. Same goes for dubbing- so we can't translate everything into 50 langs or do dubbing for every course on occ cause we just dont have the resources. Most likely, the premium you purchase on MediaFile will include a certain number of tokens for translation or voiceover services. For example, with a one-week MediaFile voucher, you could order subtitles for three courses or a single voiceover in any of the available languages. Let's call them perks. Yes, they will be called that))
you can use them to translate the content into your lang as subss or/and to create VO/Dubs. - Our system for creating an Obsidian vault
for each course on mediafile is almost ready. - The
IT course section
will open in a few days
