Cloudfront isn't much discounted bandwidth out compared to S3 though, is it?

I see S3 is initial $0.09/GB, going down to $0.07 after 50TB or $0.05 after 150TB.

Cloudfront North America is $0.085 for first 10TB; but $0.110 and up for other regions. going down to $0.060 north america after 100TB, and okay $0.025 after 1PB. (but $0.050 and up in other regions even after 1PB).

So okay, Cloudfront gets cheaper egress at large scale, I guess. By about 50% though, not an order of magnitude, and could be much less depending on region.

The reserved capacity pricing is lower, in a business setting your account manager will usually suggest this pretty quickly if you have a steady and/or increasing Cloudfront bill.

Oh I didn't even know about that, thanks! Something else for me to look into.
