Sorry that the asterisk wasn't clear, I've changed the language. I don't think you're our target market, the people we're going after don't know how to set up their own EC2 clusters and build a custom video player, so we handle the hosting. As for the cost, the reality is that a project like this takes a lot of bandwidth, and wouldn't be feasible at all if we weren't taking 5%. Lack of product is a valid criticism. We've been focusing on customer development before actually building the thing, specifically because we need feedback in order to formulate the product correctly. This is a special case in which we would build a version of it specifically for Jim, and then use the same code to create a repeatable version.
