Everyone should give AWS the middle finger and start doing this. Beyond cost, it's a matter of sovereignty over one's computing and data.

If this is a real market, I’d expect AWS to introduce S3 Junkyard with a similar durability and cost structure.

They probably still won’t budge on the egress fees.

we would be so down to buy s3 junkyard tbh we were going around begging various storage clouds to offer us this before giving up and building it ourselves
