Okay, I stand corrected. Now my question to you is how are you generating all these terabytes over the internet? And would data transfer costs really be a significant portion of your bill at that scale regardless of cloud provider? Not video transcoding resources, AI capacity, GPU capacity, etc.?

You're talking about the equivalent of completely saturating a gigabit Internet connection for over two hours per terabyte. A high def video stream from Netflix is only about 5 megabits/sec. 4K is 15 megabits.

67+ simultaneous 4K streams for two hours. Or 200+ simultaneous high def streams. Or a metric fuck-ton of web resources.

And you think you're going to find a provider that will allow you to send those kinds of volumes for $10/TB or less AND have relatively few outages AND stick around because their business model is sound?

By all means, point out who these unicorns are. Sign me up!

On Hetzner I have no problem saturating my gigabit connection with static files if I want to.
