Why not bittorrent (instead of expensive AWS S3) as any other datadump ?

Thank you! Agree 100% on bittorrent - in all honesty I am new to these kinds of projects, and the wonderful people of the Internet like yourself have been really helpful in showing me the standard way to go about things. Should be a torrent link on there by tomorrow!
S3 actually supports Torrent: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/S3Torr...

It might be the easiest solution for you

I'm impressed that AWS supports torrent, however that won't reduce S3 hosting costs, as each new download would only increase it.
