i'm no hosting guru but these hosting companies are paying maybe $50 per megabit for their tier 1 bandwidth - maybe even cheaper but let's say $50. If they were to charge you $75 per megabit which seems reasonable on the amount of bandwidth you would be using - that 75 divided by 320 gigs - so like 25 cents per gig.
1mbps is NOT 320 gigs. That is a rough figure. If you factor in bursting/95th percentile billing (which is what all providers bill hosting companies at) it comes to a lot more. Especially in adult where there are high peaks.
