The gap is that you are expected to serve most of your traffic through their blob stores and CDNs, not through the compute instances.
The traffic prices for each of these are very different.

We use VPS providers for compute and S3 for backup and large blob storage. The only other Amazon product we use is Route 53, which is a decent DNS-as-a-service and is very reliable.
