Why AWS? I want to plug a pi into my cable modem and host it there.

On a related note, We need something like bit torrent for video. Where the chunks would come approximately in order and watchers effectively host a copy for the entire time they are watching. So we can all self host arbitrary length videos to all our friends on that same Rpi.

Unless you have pretty restricted bandwidth, or a huge number of friends, you should be able to do that pretty easily with a basic HTTP server on your pi; no torrents needed.
