CDN demo stream

Finding: The server sets user_access=deny and
issubscriber=false but still returns playingUrl in the
same response. Subscription is enforced client-side only — any caller with
the expired APK JWT can obtain stream URLs without a subscription.
Munowatch CDN (b-cdn.net) serves content with no auth required
(direct HTTP Range requests succeed with HTTP 206).
