This sounds like a great idea.

There is a lot of competition, but don't be afraid of that. You probably can undercut in price and at the same time increase commissions to content creators.

I would guess S3 is going to be the cheapest in terms of storage and bandwidth. Lets say you're storing 1TB of video, uploading 50GB/mo with 5TB downloads per month. Then you're looking at around $900/mo in expenses ($800 of that is in bandwidth).

Thanks, this was the type of answer I was looking for. S3 definitely sounds affordable. I knew bandwidth would get expensive but had no clue exactly how bad.
