I'm with Dreamhost. Love them, never had any problems.
Look for some coupons online and you'll save a load of cash as well. |

| hows dreamhost with hosting mixes? i wanna upload an archive (nothing too huge, maybe 10gbs or a tiny bit more) for occasional access. it wont get a huge amount of hits for example. it would just be nice to have it backed up as well as for occasional sharing purposes. |

I host tons of mixes for TAs, Dreamhost is just fine.

reason i ask is because of this on the website
| quote: | Here are some specific examples of things not allowed:
File upload / sharing / archive / backup / mirroring / distribution sites. |
its not the primary objective of the site but i would like to upload an entire archive for backup purposes as well as share some of that occasionally. dont want to be a put in a spot where i sign up and then cant do that. |

nice icon :wtf:
Ive uploaded a lot of my mixes on mine as well and average about 5 gigs of downloads a month. I think they want to discourage people from setting up warez top sites where they upload tons of warez everyday. Anything in moderation is fine.
*I use Dreamhost btw* |

I don't see any real difference between what you're planning to do, and with what I do now.
The only problem you might run into is with hosting radio shows. The only file that was ever pulled from my webspace by the RIAA was a Proton Radio show that a TA member did. I'm guessing that's because radio stations pay a licencing fee in order to be able to broadcast, and this was then being shared without licence. Maybe. They were pretty vague :p |
