Excellent customer confusion marketing mastery example. Why not to increase bandwidth to 10TB to make the numbers even higher ? Why not to include OVH or Scaleway ? [1] https://www.ovh.com/us/ [2] https://www.scaleway.com/pricing/ EDIT: To put to perspective Scaleway is on $3.2 USD/mo, while Linode $10 /mo (not affiliated with Scaleway)

2Tb per month seems like a very reasonable amount of bandwidth for a single server.

I quite like linode and have used them for years but it seems a bit disingenuous to not include competitors like digitalocean[1] and vultr[2] in this comparison. They have very similar pricing. [1] https://www.digitalocean.com/pricing/#droplet [2] https://www.vultr.com/pricing/

That would be pretty poor marketing, since Vultr is better value for blazing fast servers.

Keep in mind, they do not use ECC RAM.
