Absolutely we don't try to hide that information you can try out our file transfer calculator here https://www.masv.io/file-transfer-calculator/ - This compares MASV to shipping hard drives and uses real rates from the fedex api. The way I like to think of it is it's much more convenient to transfer online instead of shipping hard drives as there is just less to deal with and it's harder to scale. So if MASV is faster or not much longer then shipping a drive or hand delivering then it's time you can spend on taking on more projects.
