So what, Apple should bill them some bandwidth fees? Make them host it themselves maybe?

No the argument above is that those 580 Petabytes should be covered by the $100 developer program membership.

How much does 580 PT cost at AWS?

If you needed to serve petabytes of data, you'd be throwing a lot of money away on storage and traffic costs using AWS over other solutions.

~445k in s3 costs according to aws calc, using a naive "there is 1 object in the bucket, it's been fetched 116 million times, and that used 580PB of fetch bandwidth."
