again. the comparison needs to be apples to apples.

it's true that outbound traffic does cost (and in theory if you do a lot of traffic), but the budget instances don't have that much bandwidth to start with. Also if you have a huge amount of traffic depending on what you do you might be better off with S3+cloudfront

Isn't outbound cloudfront traffic just as outrageously expensive as outbound EC2 traffic? My impression is that AWS is simply unaffordable when you have large amounts of traffic.
