10 DVDS hold 47GB. How much does that cost on Box?

And can you download 47GB faster than your mom can mail you a DVD?

Storing 47GB would cost you 47 cents/month on Glacier.

And can you download 47GB faster than your mom can mail you a DVD?

Probably, though I'm not quite sure about the speed of S3. I use a cheap VPS instead (much more expensive than Glacier, but also much, much more useful), from which I can easily get 3MB/s, so that would definitively be yes.
