The problem with outsourcing the risk components is that you don't know for sure whether they are properly taken care of. Major cloud providers have been caught "oopsing" your data, and bam it is gone. Furthermore, they have no incentive to be more efficient about it, they could easily be using 10x the amount of resources necessary, and you wouldn't even have a clue, you're just paying for evermore expensive crap that becomes less reliable over time.

But the cloud providers compete with other other! Look at the efficient market in display in their bandwidth pricing!

For very large customers, the cloud providers do compete with each other on cost. They often pay different prices than are advertised.
