Cloud Storage Recommendations for Music Streaming App
I am looking for a cloud storage provider for a music streaming app.
Currently using blackblaze but there is a slight delay when playing a song.
Don't wanted to host music directly on server due to CPU and RAM usage and offloading to a S3 object storage which is not breaking the bank.
This is a charity site, which I am sponsoring expected growth in next 3year is 2 to 3 TB.

why not a storage server it can't be that intensive
Overhead of server management plus backups also 1TB for $5 to $6 per month isn't going to be easy to find.
With @Francisco You can attach slabs at $5 per TB to any of their VPS plans.
Looks pretty good, unfortunately I've already paid upfront for the vps and it seems you have to have a dedicated sever slice to be able to make use of it.
Can I buy just a Block Storage Slab?
No, you must have an accompanying KVM Dedicated Server Slice in the same facility to make use of a Block Storage Slab
You could try Cloudflare R2 or putting a cache in front of S3 on a vps with a nvme drive that's close to your other vps
You're right. How about 2TB for $6 per month?
In a little over 3 days I do think there will surely be someone on here with an ridiculously good storage vps offer. Rumor has it @MannDude is going to run pure NVMe storage for $2/TB/mo.
Have you tried placing CloudFlare in front of B2? Might help.
@vikiahm3d Can provide S3 compatible storage (as many you TBs you want, upto 16TB) at $3/TB. DM for details.
I believe you need a host rep tag minimum to do this
Bunny storage replicated where you want
You can get a 1TB storage box at hetzner for ~3€ depending on VAT
Can anyone recommend any music streaming app that can directly stream from self-hosted storage like S3 (non-VPS)?
Use storj.io s3. There performance is excellent and cost is also less
