This is nothing new.

Here is why people join paysites. If it has a cheap trial they get access to a ton of content for just a few dollars. Even if the site doesn't they pay around $30 and can get access to a ton of content. They then download it all and end up paying just a few cents per scene then cancel their membership. It is still a good value for those who want access to a lot of stuff. There are many networks out there that will give you access to a few thousand exclusive scenes. That is a lot of porn for $30.
Every site I've seen with that kind of setup want some minimum top up before they allow you to download.

They're heavily restricted. DRM up the arse. Overpriced (clips for sale is like a dollar a minute).

To be honest I think the biggest obstacle from somebody doing this is accepting micropayments.
