Streaming the video uses essentially the same amount of bandwidth as downloading would. The exception would be if people only stream a small portion of the video. Yes.

I am using s3log.com to monitor it. So I think I should be right then(?). Thanks for confirming that for me!

So the calculation should be 300 x 12 cents per GB or $36.00 per month. Is your bill higher than that?

S3 is quite confusing to be honest. Hoping you could confirm my thoughts, 10GB transferred a day, every day for the entire month shouldn't be in the $100's? I have 3GB hosted content and 30000 get requests. Thanks! Hi Steve!

HD Movies from iTunes are much smaller than 13 GB. Would it be possible to encode them differently to make them smaller? Would streaming be an option for you? Wow – those are big videos.

I am not a technical guy but this may seem expensive at some point. I plan to have a few videos on my website. The problem is, they are about 13 gig . And just a few from my list will have these videos distributed to probably a few thousand..This will result in a high bill from what I see. Is there any other option? which would be better? I also have one video selling my program but am unsure what would be the right solution. Any help would be much appreciated. Many thanks once again fro a great post.. Jay Steve,
