Free Tier Value
This free tier is genuinely usable and perpetual, with no credit card shown, but it is tightly capped on capacity. Compared with the $6/month Creator plan, it keeps the same core protections and playback features while offering only about 10% of the storage minutes and 3% of the bandwidth, so its practical value is about $3/month.
