Sessions a year (you set it) x 8 minutes a session x the typical public list price of a cloud graphics stream, £0.37 an hour. The device draws a lighter web build of the car, not the photoreal stream, so the typical price is used, not the highest; the photoreal stream stays for devices that can’t draw it smoothly. 1 million sessions a year is an example volume, not a published figure: set your own below. 9 in 10 devices can draw it smoothly; with 3 in 4 it is £37,600, and at the lowest public stream price £14,400. A company that runs its own servers pays less than list price for this work. Generated images and video, 3D file storage and delivery, and dealer leads stay on servers. Marketing stills and 3D file conversion also stay on servers, not priced here.
