It's a distinction without a difference though. If you use 1TB of data on Amazon or on OVH, and one service costs you $x and the other costs you 20% of $x you've got the same service for less money.
- closeparen 9y agoYour cheap OVH bandwidth is paid for by overcharging less intensive users. Since Amazon charges exactly what you use, it’s a great deal if you’re below average, and a bad deal if you’re above average.
- patrickg_zill 9y agoIt's exactly the same model used by fitness clubs worldwide. And Comcast cable Internet, Google Fiber, every DSL provider, even every cellular data provider. Current true bandwidth costs about $0.50 (50 USD cents) per Mbps, per month, sometimes even less. Average 1 month usage of a 1Mbps link that has Internet traffic on it is about 175-210GBytes. Literally less than 1/3rd of 1 penny, per GB of data.
