Their hosting provider has told them they will not allow them to upload any more media to their site for visitors to view because there is simply too much data.
This is where you tell the hosting provider they are a joke, close the checkbook, and migrate. There is no "they CANNOT move", they are just too lazy or too cheap to have it done by professional.
You are so unaware of the circumstances, that you sound foolish with these statements.
With the limitations you provided above, it's easy to assume this isn't anything complex or large as to make it hard to migrate. These limitations are so crippling, it's hard to take that provider seriously, and I would laugh in their faces if I heard anything similar to that.
Why don't you enlighten us what the circumstances are?

Found this guy's instructions for using B2 to host and CF to deliver. He includes a step by step with illustrations. It looks interesting.
It may be more than I need when you consider the url shortening, but it is right in line with this topic so I thought I would share it here:

While researching the use of cnames for B2 Buckets, I found this. I would not use it because it has all the makings for bad/malicious outcomes, but it will add to your knowledge base and perhaps provide food for thought.

Putting everything on a public B2 Bucket? I never thought about it because of the egress fees. But with no fees to CloudFlare, that makes it a great blob storage solution for pretty much anyone.

Just ignore that part.

Wasabi is better because there's no egress fee.

If you feed CF fron B2, there are no egress fees. They have an arrangement.

oh, missed that. Very cool. CF in front of anyone reduces egress fees, but if they agree to do none, that's awesome.

But still, the cost of 1TB of storage in B2 is 10x the cost of Wasabi.
99GB of B2 is the same price as 1TB @ Wasabi.
If you need less than 99GB of B2, and never plan on using more than that soon, then yes B2 could be better if it meets other potential needs.

I just looked; 1TB at B2 is $5/mo and 1TB at Wasabi is $5.99/mo

Wow, their prices have come WAY down. They used to be quite a bit higher than Wasabi. Now they still have egress/ingress in many cases. But for pure storage, that's crazy cheap.

Oh wow, you're right, it stayed at 12 months when I looked at the calculator, I thought I chanded it to 1 month.
