Additional info (from the e-mail I received) in case anybody cares:

"P.S. Please note that the reduced bandwidth rates shown above will also take
effect for Amazon EC2 and Amazon SQS. The bandwidth tier in which you will be
charged each month will be calculated based on your use of each of these
services separately, and could therefore vary across services."

Can anyone tell me what bandwidth costs a month once you need over a terabyte
a month? How would you host a 5-10 mb movie that may be viewed millions of
times without using a 3rd party video host like youtube etc?

Lots of dedicated hosts will include a 2-5 TB of transfer a month for
$100-500. Media temple will sell 1TB chunks on shared hosting for $20/month.

I've seen dedicated hosts that price bandwidth above their included allotment
at $500 per TB. You can also buy based on peak bandwidth.

You'll see quite a range depending on business models, peak transfer caps,
etc. Mediatemple, for example, is clearly hoping that most people will never
need their full allotment, and when they do, they only need it occasionally.
