-- Posted by drifting at 5:11 pm on July 15, 2008 Im looking to just a POS shared account, to keep personal backups on and what not. How strict are they? Would they bitch about me having a ton of music and videos uploaded, even if they werent publicly available? What about running TorrentFlux? I know a few people here have them (I heard about them on here) so hopefully someone can help. -- Posted by marshmellowman at 5:15 pm on July 15, 2008 If you're looking for data backup Amazon's S3 service is probably a better deal. You only pay for the bandwidth you use and they have great connections to the Internet. A normal hosting provider is not really the thing you should be looking at, they don't tolerate illegal files (such as copyrighted content) whether or not you intend to share them, because you are essentially making them available. Plus uploading will be a bitch. -- Posted by JeremyM at 7:29 am on July 17, 2008 Or, for the money you'd spend on a hosting account and eating up yourbandwidth and time, buy an external hard drive.
