[LRUG] Paid video content

[Tim Cowlishaw]

I'm working on a project that does something like this currently, and uses
BrightCove (https://www.brightcove.com/en/) which is working well (with the
caveat that i wasn't involved in that particular bit of integration
initially, so i'm not certain of how that went)

Thanks!

Tim
