I had a quick tinker with thr pricing calculator and It will be similar.

Across the board the big providers are pretty samey on price. We actually
have functioning market competition in our industry for a change.

I did a quick test and this does indeed work for the static web sites
preview - at least for serving the index.html file.  You need to specify a
custom origin in the CDN setup using the primary endpoint of the static
website as the origin rather than selecting the storage account as it
allows selecting the blob storage endpoint.

I wonder how the costs compare as I use AWS for this at the moment and it
costs me on average AUD$0.20/month over the last 12 months for S3 +
CloudFront combination to host a pretty much brochureware site with a few
pages over HTTPS.  The DNS hosting costs more!
