They're very ingest heavy compared to how much of it is actually streamed out and to a very small/local audience so probably don't even need a cdn. And ingest on aws is free.

On the other hand, S3 is kind of ridiculously expensive compared to even more expensive on-prem options like a PureStorage SSDs array. With spindles on Ceph you can probably get quite a bit lower than AWS's 2c/Gig/mo. Or you can just use R2 with colocated servers for ingest.
