Wouldn't surprise me if it were in Freakonomics, but there is always a weird "charging point" for things based on old expectations that subsidies the enterprise.

Like the old 50c/m mobile phone calls, the 10c SMS messages, then when they were free, charging for international SMS and calls, now charging for data. It is the "whales" who spend a lot of money on mobile games. 1% fee for looking after your money, Etc.

I wonder what AWS will do if they have to make egress cheap! What is the next thing they can charge for that is actually cheap but people are happy to pay for.
