Hello, thanks for the feedback. We've decide to go with the credit system because it means that we can charge less for shorter, more concise screencasts and it's less confusing for users. Consumers are aware of and understand credits because many services implement them - the Xbox Live system is a great example of this.
You can also head over to the about page ( http://binarycake.com/about ) and see a list of credit bundles you can buy and the costs.
Thanks for the feedback! Jamie
