The site does not publish endpoint documentation on the page read, so the API would have to be discovered.","chaining":"Bulk video egress: a client with 500 GB-1 TB a day of served video can put the long tail here at zero cost and keep only the hot set on a paid CDN.

A host that pays per view has an incentive to keep serving, which is a stronger retention signal than a promise.","binding":"none","binding_note":"No counter is published, so none can bind as a number. What binds in practice is account action: a pay-per-view host closes an account that burns bandwidth without earning, and that enforcement is invisible until it happens.","identity_cost":{"kind":"email","detail":"A publishing account is required (the site is a publisher programme with earnings), and payouts imply a payment identity.
