>Free API calls: Effective May 1, we’re making API calls free for all B2 Cloud Storage customers.

>Storage price: Also effective May 1, we are updating pricing from $6/TB to $6.95/TB

Honestly amazing change. The free API changes are going to cut our bills in half. the 95cent increase per TB is totally reasonable.

That’s a 15% price increase. Last increase from $5 to $6 was in October 3, 2023.

This follows HDD and SSD price increases.

Same here, the API calls have always been heavier for me than the storage costs. It of course depends upon each use case, but this is overall a win for how I've been using it.

Even with the storage increase, still way more affordable than S3 or many of the other alternatives out there.
