Charging for uploads and downloads? isn't that making the whole service inconvenient

It says 2000 monthly downloads. I will consume that in a single day with my automated CI pipeline. Is hard to take this into consideration.

Uploads and downloads makes sense to be unlimited. At least having bandwidth limits like any basic hosting service.

Wouldn't be enough to get unlimited downloads? Upper cap on the uploads often does not affect CI pipelines, unless CI includes packaging (which I would rather push toward CD).
