On movie gallery traffic 50 terrabytes of traffic is going to probably be 190 or so megabit on 95th. So, searching for 2-3 servers in a cluster and 200 megabit is right on for what he seeks. At 4 cents a gig that's only $2000 per month and is going to be on the low side for all of the providers on this board with the exception of AlphaRed. Additionally, finding any provider to do this on per gigabyte billing instead of 95th is going to be a challenge on this type of buy because every provider purchases their IP either on 95th or fixed full rate gig ports - but mostly on 95th percentile. The problem with selling on per gigabyte is simple, you could burst to 500 megabit or any amount for any period of 36 hours or more and you will likely change the hosts cost structure for their monthly bandwidth expenses.
You will have more host options in the $3000-$5000/month range. I would imagine 2 or more high spec Xeons with SCSI drives in a 0 configuration and decent ram, load balanced, would meet your needs. If your budget moves up into that range, I'll throw my towel in the ring with an excellent managed offer.
Cheers,
Brad
