Change it to: exgress is free as long as you don't use it
1 comments

Egress is free as long as you use it for individual backup, or for other data you want to keep just in case and mostly discard, like old logs.
If I do the math but I store a lot of data that gets served by a CDN. It rarely changes and is requested enough that it will stay in the cache. I'm already paying for the CDN, so I can't save there but if can save on storage, it could be useful.

I'm not disagreeing with the point that that pricing is clear or not "hidden" but more that there's a use case here that can make sense.
