The most relevant bit for me is that apparently the minimum price for 1TB of transfer is now $6 instead of $5. That's unfortunate.

Any suggestions on the best VPS providers for bandwidth-intensive applications?

I am looking for somebody who has used a Contabo VPS. They advertise their smallest at:

  $6.99 / month
  Starts with 4 vCPU, 8 GB RAM, 32 TB Egress, Unlimited Ingress, and 50 GB NVMe.

Hetzner gives a generous 20TB egress for each VPS of any size. They also have dedicated servers which give you a gigabit link with unlimited traffic.

I don't know if I would call them the 'best', but Kamatera offers pretty good bandwidth, 5TB/mo or 50MB/s unbounded at $4 (for non-dedicated allocation, $9/mo for dedicated). I don't know if I'd call them the best because I don't really need much more than something that's reliable and has decent speed, which it satisfies pretty well.
