Hi.
Many shared hosting providers may not be happy with you using 60 gb of
space. It might actually make the most sense to use a vps as you
mentioned. You might also be able to right up some other way to handle
it. I don't actually know what your project is, going backwards through
my email here. But bit torrent sync could allow you to create a folder
with all the content, then people with access to the preferably
read-only key could connect and pull all the data for themselves, and if
they stay in the folder will then be available to help with your
bandwidth usage as still more people grab the folder and hopefully stay
in it.
I think the vps my friends and I have could help with something llike bt
sync. You'd be better off using your own vps if you can afford it for
maintaining a website though, we do a lot with ours that could have us
needing to reboot it and the like since it's windows and we use it like
a regular computer to help send files to people on skype, add files to
dropbox and the like. Would be perfect for a huge bt sync folder though.
Might even be able to create an ftp folder to access it and I do have a
small http server running on it so if nothing else you could create
backup download links to grab files from it if people can't get it any
other way. Can you add me on skype? Aarontech.valiant is my id. I don't
accept everyone who adds me so it would help if in the comment for the
add request you mention you're from audyssey.

Hi Devin,
Unfortunately we're looking at more than a little space - 50gb is probably a
fair estimate once things really get rolling.
Bandwidth is also a big deal; we served about 60gb of files in our first
week.
I'm currently in the process of looking at whatever offers I can get -
whether that be setting up on somebody's server in the community, getting a
VPS with my current host or anything else people can come up with.

Hmm. I wonder if NS-studios, or VGStorm would give you a little web space
for this?

Hi All,
As those of you on audiogames.net will probably have noticed,
agarchive.net is running into some hosting issues.
The short version is that cPanel, the company supporting the archive's web
host, has quarantined the games directory on grounds that we don't have
legal rights to distribute the files.
They are asking for documentation for each file in order to prove that we
can in fact host the games, and since this is a collection of about 450
different titles, acquiring that documentation (by installing each game
and
quoting its license agreement) is a prohibitively massive task.
Therefore, I'm looking for ideas - does anybody have thoughts as to where
we could host the archive that would be easily accessible to all and have
a
constant uptime?
Let me know your thoughts - the response to the archive has been extremely
enthusiastic, and I'd hate for the project to vanish a week after it
starts.
John
P.S:
As I said on audiogames.net, I'd appreciate it if folks could avoid
sending hatemail to my web host over this.
Jolly Leaf has been tremendously helpful (and is continuing to work with
me on the issue now), so I want to make sure they don't get targeted
because of these issues.
