how much does it cost for a tube site to stream a 30 minute video?

bdjillion of dollars

Go spam somewhere else. OP no exact estimation you need to calculate how much bandwidth is used to stream a video and then calculate bandwidth cost company is paying.

Thanks lovebitch.

ok mr gfy business guru lol dick ...

who cares, they have enough money...

I really don't know what the big tubes pay for BW...

If you use 100mb as your base rather than a particular video and then know what they pay per terabyte it would be fairly easy to work out.....

My guess is no more than a few cents...

Probably a lot less than you or I.

If you search for cdn pricing (all the big tubes will be using one) and enter 500Tb you can get the price down to about $0.022/Gb. So a 100Mb movie would cost you 0.22 cents. And 500Tb is just a number I plucked out of thin air, the big tubes probably go through a lot more than that.

**.7 cents or less? depends on the size of the file

if you lease lines the bandwidth cost doesn't matter. The pipe has a total capacity at a set cost

Like $3,000/mo all you can eat till the pipe clogs ...

Big players have their own CDN

.002 cents for 100mb ?

Close to nothing.

The more BW you use, the better price per TB/Mbps/Gbps you can get so will obviously pay more than those big tubes.

Don't know.
Not my problem.

2 cents per gig is still way too high. Average user is worth a tenth of a cent so just to break even you'd need to serve 20 users with 1 gig data. Not happening.

If you want the best price, you don't use a CDN. You get servers with 10gbps network cards and unlimited bandwidth. Costs 1500-2000 a month. Even if you're only averaging 100MBps you're still saving more than 50% compared to a .02/GB CDN.
