Anyone know if the quoted cost of $0.04/GB for Transfer Acceleration is instead of the $0.03/GB for standard S3 ingress, or in addition to it? Ie. is the final cost per GB $0.07 or $0.04 when using Transfer Acceleration?

Edit: as pointed out to me below, there actually is no ingress cost for standard S3 uploading. The $0.03/GB is monthly storage. So the cost of this service is $0.04/GB instead of $0.00.

S3 ingress is free. You're thinking of storage pricing.

Ah yes of course, thanks. I took too brief a glance at the S3 pricing page.
Data transfer into S3 is free - it's the storage that's $0.03/GB-Month
