That's still overpriced by a factor of 10. Hetzner overage price for the 10G link is 1 euro / TB or about $0.001/GB. That seems pretty reasonable.
So we're really looking at something more like $250/month.

- prvit 4y agoHetzner still makes a good profit on that $0.001/GB.
- bb88 4y agoI'm guessing a lot of that money is being reinvested into the network. At the point in time their business levels off, they can take profit. Likely in this case, they can't upgrade their network fast enough, I'm guessing. And they don't have the funds to do it. This would be a different story than my local cableco say. They will sell you 5TB of data for $100/mo. Or about $0.02/GB. But that money isn't going into network upgrades. And won't until they're forced to, since that's the cable company business model and has been for decades.
