It's interesting to notice also a possibile different approach:
https://www.server4you.net/vserver/vserver-vergleich.php?products=0,1,2,3
Server4you smallest VPS cost 8.85EUR/month and allow 5TB/traffic per
month on a 100Mbit/s connection.
That means that to do 100TB/month it will require 20 VPS for a cost of
177EUR/month.
So, leaseweb cost 1.39EUR/TB/month while server4you would cost
1.77EUR/TB/month but having 20 servers instead of one big server.
Probably registering as a reseller and going up with volumes it would be
possible to get a discount.
I am going to move my server from hetzner (7EUR for 1TB/month) to
server4you (8.85EUR/for 5TB/month) as it sounds much cheaper bandwidth
costs.
