Many sites that host videos more than make up for their bandwidth costs with other upsells (private videos, subscription fees, affiliate links, etc)-- porn sites being a solid example of what I'm talking about.

Also note that bandwidth costs drop dramatically when you are using it in bulk-- I don't have any solid figures for you right now (sorry) but I can tell you it falls off fast. For example, a site may be paying 18c per GB up to a point, then after they hit a milestone in consumption it drops to 10c, then 3c.
