AWS has intrigued me, they don't follow the normal rules of scale, shedding the lighter, less profitable loads as they grow. They host anything and everything and don't seem to care. It may be they actually follow the rules of scale in volume. Taking everything, even free grammars cookie flat pages knowing that X percentage of the freebies will generate a small revenue. It's a hard concept for me to visualize, I still think 4tb is a lot of data
