$0.01/AU/day isn't crazy. I'd actually argue its low, compared to some of the other enterprise or social media bills we've seen.

You can't just say "I could serve 1000 users on a $240/year VPS, they should be able to serve their 10M users on around $2M/year!" Things don't scale like that. The complex dynamics of the world can't be represented by linear extrapolation. Moreover, there's a balance that needs to be struck between the complex process of "spending less on cloud" and the complex process of "developing the product". Everything costs money.
