I rather like the fremium model, where basic use is free and you pay for the API or high-res. 2MP isn't bad, that's about 1400x1400, but I'd like to see 1500 ot 2000, personally. I think they'll have a tough time transitioning to paid-only.
Credits are annoying, but no one has really cracked micropayments--it's too expensive to take $1 payments.
I like how replicate does it, just take a card and bill for usage, then you can decide to just comp it or defer the charges when usage is low.
Going local is fun and practical for hobby use, but for business use an API makes more sense. Let someone else deal with hardware.
