I'll check the pricing for a non-MSDN subscription and see what it is for the various VM configurations. It is going to be more expensive than hosting a server out of your house because you get dual purpose from a home high speed internet connection, but that's the same for using any hosting service.
Does Azure hosting cost more than Akkadius's hosting business? Probably, but then again, I haven't checked the cost compared to the various Azure VM pricing models.
Now, if you re-wrote the whole Emu to run as a series of Azure Worker roles on SQL Azure instead of using VMs, you might see a huge cost reduction, but now're you facing the difficulty of rewriting some or all of the entire Emu. That becomes cost prohibitive for entirely separate reasons. =P
I'll post the script in this thread.
