This /. article touches a discussion that (IIRC) occurred here about
whether using Amazon for bittorrent seeds would actually work -- or
would all the traffic naturally migrate to Amazon as the biggest pipe?

  http://slashdot.org/articles/08/03/08/042227.shtml

A Norwegian broadcasting company NRK, did this experiment and figures
torrent cut their costs to  1700/41000 (~4%) of their estimated
non-torrent costs!

Anybody see anything to question about this calculation?

I can't read the Norwegian, but it doesn't seem they don't have any
details about their AWS setup, merely mentioning S3.
