300 Petabytes is nothing. The Filecoin network alone has 20 EiB available. There must be more data than that on Youtube
Edit: Maybe there isn't, but that would render the problem very easy
As far as I can tell Filecoin works by having clients pay to store files on people’s servers so there’s still a question of who is going to pay for it.
Users could have to pay 0.005$ for each 20min video each year. I don't think that's a problem
