> discounted S3 option for reduced redundancy

No such option exists anymore.

Sure, they have a Reduced Redundancy "feature". But you would be stupid to use it because RR costs more than the regular redundancy, not less. (One big hint is that it's not even listed on their regular pricing page anymore.)

That is how Amazon phases out features: Instead of raising the price, they just don't lower it. Over time, it becomes more expensive because all the other prices are going down.
