I asked Vimeo about this, because it would affect my tutorials too (well, it would if I wasn’t pro, which I wont be for ever) and got the following reply.
Hey Paul, Sorry for any confusion! The only content that really requires a PRO account would be videos used for commercial gain. So if you’re selling access to these tutorial videos, then you’ll need a PRO account for sure and that has always been the case. But if you’re making tutorials that are free to use, you can use any account type for that. So they need to clarify this before it gets out of hand.

Which is odd and unclear, most of the thing I post are 3d-techno related, half demo-half tutorial ; and I believe that kind of video represent a non niglectable part of their users. Let's see where it goes. On Mon, Feb 1, 2016 at 11:01 AM, Cristobal Infante <cgc...@gmail.com> wrote: such a nonsense move from vimeo, I am struggling to understand the point of this. Is it because too many people are looking at this videos and sucking up bandwidth for "free"? On 1 February 2016 at 09:16, Olivier Jeannel <facialdel...@gmail.com> wrote: https://vimeo.com/153607340
