Yes uploading into AWS is free/cheap. You pay per GB of data downloaded, which is not cheap.

You can see why, from a sales perspective: AWS' customers generally charge their customers for data they download - so they are extracting a % off that. And moreover, it makes migrating away from AWS quite expensive in a lot of circumstances.
