I know it sounds odd ,but our processing costs are zero, bandwidth will only be site traffic NOT streaming as we are going to use a p2p system , site maintenance /dev is already covered and paid for.
As someone who works with video streaming infrastructure (both for VOD and live), I can't help but laugh out loud at this. We have looked at this possibility (and others have done, such as Bittorrent) and it's a nightmare (legal, technical, user perception) that is not worth the cost.
Just a few technical issues to keep in mind:
- NAT + NAT traversal (and as much as I would love IPv6 to just become a reality this year, it's still going to take a few more years. Plus, a lot of carriers seem to love NAT and seem to want to deploy NAT-like setups for IPv6, which makes me want to punch them)
- home routers are crap and will make the user's connection suck once you have too many connections established
- most home connections aren't fast enough to upload video in real time. This is specially problematic for the models as until there's enough people in the stream, they would be uploading their video to N different users, requiring a connection that is much faster than what they have now (and for most models, they already have the top service option from their ISP)
I could go on and on, but given that you have ignored the feedback from models on all other aspects so far including key ones like age verification, I feel like I would be shouting into the void.
