I am not so much worries about cost. I am interested in..
1. Resource management. I want it to be stable, and not run into RAM/Mem issues.
2. Speed.
3. Expandability.
This site(s) are going to last for decades. So they need to be able to grow without a new CMS every few years. So it has to be a system that can be upgraded, and expanded easily without complete rebuilds.
4. Function.
They need to handle existing needs for 100,000's of images, 10,000's of video, easily sorted and maintained. Searchable. Easy control panel.
5. Easy CSS.
Every few years I like to update sites. So the CSS must be able to swap out fairly easily to upgrades. Both for overhauls, but for building in adnetwork, and other things as you evolve.
6. Ease of payment gateway, API on membership sites.
7. Secure membership, and back end.
Those are not in order, and just things that come to mind.
