I feel it's more wise to read a host's TOS than to go on users personal experiences, since personal experiences wouldn't hold up in court. I didn't mean to argue with you, Xena, I simply meant to point out that their TOS are not typical. Most hosts will not shut you off without notice. And most hosts do disclose their overage charges. Those two items alone are enough to arouse suspicion. Whether you have had a good experience with them doesn't matter in the long run, it's their legal terms that really matter, and the simple fact is that they do not disclose what their overage charges are, which means that if you suddenly get hotlinked or have a run of people downloading items and you get shut off, they might tell you that you now owe them $15 per Gig for overages before they will turn you back on. They may indeed be a good company, but I personally wouldn't take that risk. And yes, 50 Gb is plenty for some types of businesses. A good friend of mine gets alot of business through search engines and although he makes around $20,000 US a month, he only uses around 15 Gb of bandwidth per month. :)
