Can you elaborate why not ? You can get some cheap dedicated hosting (ex: [1]) for a fraction of the price. It's so cheap compared to AWS you can order a few spare ones and still come out cheaper than your one beefy AWS instance ? The

Why aren't there any alternatives ? I remember fiddling with some tools on Ubuntu to put some music on an iPhone - like, half a decade ago. Is that now blocked somehow ?
