Wasabi, unlimited bandwidth. $5.99/tb/month. Though it is object storage.

See: https://wasabi.com/cloud-storage-pricing/#cost-estimates

They could really do with making the bandwidth option on this calculator better.

Wasabi does not have any sort of unlimited bandwidth. In fact, they explicitly say that if your download exceeds 100TB/month your use case is not a good fit. https://wasabi.com/paygo-pricing-faq/#free-egress-policy
Wasabi also bills you for a minimum of 90 days of storage, so it's only appropriate if your data has low turnover.

The 100TB was just an example. They don't want you using more bandwidth than your storage. If you're storing 500GB, then your bandwidth usage should be less than 500GB.

Wasabi isn't meant for scenarios where you're going to be transferring more than you're storing.

Which is basically a roundabout way of saying, they're offering storage for backups, not for content distribution.
