I've given Joystream a try and found it a little entertaining that they game the system with an immediate payout to new accounts. I guess it makes sense to try and get users to play with the pay for download features but it gave a false sense of immediate returns.

How has your experiment progressed Chris? I truly doubt your ISP will send you a cease and desist too quickly unless you are consuming every bit of bandwidth. My bandwidth usage for Joystream averaged but a fraction of my pipe's capacity in my own experimentation.

Anyway, I'm running the same experiment for now leaving Joystream to its devices and not seeing much BCH for the effort. Thanks for bringing it to my attention though.
