The one thing I'm curious about is what happens when a company that's just starting up blows way past the expected data that they're buying from the CDN. From the the looks of it (based on the one Amazon link) it looks like the overall price goes down, provided all the data transferred is the same market. Hopefully, that is the case rather than some kind of extravagant bill from Amazon!

Thank you Blue Label Labs....finally an article that lays out the hidden costs of launcing a streaming app. Hosting and liscensing fees, oh my!
