Cost is the sole reason for us as well. We have ~600-700 dedicated servers around the globe, and generate a lot of egress traffic (~20PB/mo). We last ran the figures a year or so ago, and it'd cost us around 13-15x in network costs alone. A common thread of a lot of the replies to this post is network traffic costs. If one of the cloud providers can figure out a way to dramatically (and I mean at least 10x) reduce their network transfer pricing, then I think we'll see a second wave of companies adopting their services.
