Making a 20 minute long video is a sizable time investment. I imagine many people who are willing to invest that much effort into creating content would be happy to pay $20/month for hosting.

That's a fair point, especially considering everything else you get with the plan.

However, the pricing is still a far cry from non-decentralized solutions (for example, MUX's free plan offers 100K minutes per month [1]) and so the only other selling point is joining the fediverse—which is a good thing, but hard to get people to convert on (in Bluesky's case the turmoil that is now X was required).
