i too would like to find a service where I could host ~500GB of files and cheaply send random subsets of them (~.5GB each session) to random users all over the world without it becoming >90% of the service's costs

i'm starting to think the few years of really cheap/free egress rates were actually an accounting mistake, and the true cost of moving those bits is finally becoming apparent to datacenter accountants

but i may be naive.

You should look at Hetzner [0]. They offer unmetered bandwidth on their dedicated servers with a 1Gbps uplink (I personally run a Tor relay on one averaging a sustained 15+Mbps over the past year), idem for their "Storage Share" offering, and 20TB/month at 1Gbps on their cloud VMs.

I'm not affiliated with them, just a happy customer.
