What about something like Cloudflare? Transparent to most and it'd help with your bandwidth issues.

the point was just that "if need be" free capacity is available without
having to throw money at it. until there's no need, doesn't matter.

also hackability (and ui) should be irrelevant for the autoupdate
process (which i presume will do all kinds of checksum and sig
verification). and it's likely the autoupdates that will create very
lumpy download demand.
