Amazon has introduced a new API for S3 to store data in it’s Europe datacenter ( with higher pricing, of course ). I decided to make a small test to see if the higher price worths the money, and here is the result:

So for almost double the price (10 cent in US versus 18 cent in Europe pro GB/month storage) it really worths considering if the target audience is in Europe
