Earlier quoted context omitted.

If I'm not mistaken AWS has the highest egress rates of the major cloud providers.

I just put 1 TB in AWS/Azure/GCP's cost calculators. AWS (US East 1, no free tier) - $92.07 Azure (East US) - $88.65 GCP (Americals) - $122.88 I'm quite surprised by GCP being the highest cost here, and by such a wide margin.

Backblaze has good rates, but it's only really good for storage...which is their main use. I am also surprised GCS (GCP?) is so high. Last a checked AWS was the highest, maybe they cut their rates. I am a pretty happy Azure customer. My only complaint really are their service plans being subpar, but now I've switched over to their IaaS model and it's much better.
