Paying a relay is the most basic requirement for it to become incentive aligned other than controlling who can use it "for free". My vision is that people will offer relays that charge per use. These relays would have to measure use and as storing an event begs the question, for how long it will be stored, it's obviously not trivial to put a number to each use of a relay but I suspect that the long term most viable relays will be those that offer the lowest price for the highest value and my hope is that it will be a commodity and not just a bunch of premium relays nobody understands how to compare.
