Hello, I run http://www.planetboredom.net

Im in an urgent need of a media host, to host my videos and flash files. My current provider booted me for using exactly what I said I would be using, and I need a new one ASAP.

Currently Im using about 25-30GB a day, which comes to roughly a TB per month. Im looking for someone with an unmetered server or a nice fat pipe, that they aren't really using that much, and wouldn't mind sharing it with me.

I need:

At least 2TB of bandwidth per month
5Gb space
awstats (or something that tracks hits/bandwidth)
ability to use my media domain to get to the files

In exchange, I will link to your website under every video "Bandwidth Provided By...." as well as a text link under the main nav bar on every page of the site.

My site gets about 4000 uniques per day, and growing...

Please PM me if interested! This is VERY urgent!

I think the answer is "video Bandwidth"

Do you really need 2TB or is that a typo?

I do not think that any normal hosting company would be able to provide you with 2TB of bandwidth. Even if it was with adding adverts on your site. The ads just won't pay for the 2TB.

But good luck and let us know if you did find someone/company willing to host your site.

I had my videos hosted in the exactly the same fashion for over 2 months. If you have an unmetered 100mbps server which you arent using to a full potential....2TB/month is nothing. Evern on a 10mbps server 2TB is just over 1/2 the allowed bandwidth.

a paid host will be your best bet
