You may be able to get by with a network of servers dedicated to serving content, but at some point, you'll plateau and need to make the switch to a CDN. THEN bandwidth becomes an issue and it's expensive.
so just curious, what is your definition of a CDN, and part two, curious why you *don't* think its a bunch of dedicated media servers?

its like people who think a cloud isn't just a bunch of servers working together.

yes there is a difference between tubes and paysites. i've hosted both. not at pornhub levels, but none of you own pornhub.

either way, AWS isn't the right solution for porn.
