100MB video with 5 million views is 500TB. If 500TB costs $5000, it's $10/TB, not $50/TB. As long as you stay away from well-known IaaS platforms, there are plenty of places where you can get bandwidth for less than $10/TB. Lowest I've seen is $1/TB. Having actually used a few hundred TB with them, it's a bit slower but not that bad.
