Greetings,
In the summer of 2004 I started noticing that my bandwidth
had risen from 15 gigabytes to well over 27 gigabytes. In September of 2005 I
received a notice from my domain provider that I had to move up to the premium
service if my bandwidth continues raising at its rate.
I do run a few websites from my domain, but my counters
were showing a decrease not increase of callers. MP3 and video files do require
a lot of room to store and a lot of bandwidth for people to view. If you come
to my site directly I do not mind you viewing or even downloading my files, as
a matter of fact any of my video’s and MP3’s can be
downloaded and used on your site or for your personal pleasure!
What I can’t afford to do is to host files on my server for
another person’s website! After being told to either upgrade my account or pay
$50 – $100 extra a month for going over 40 gigs of bandwidth is uncalled for!
Because of these events I no longer allow others to hotlink my files.
Please feel free to download my files (except my U2 &
SR71 stuff) any time you need it. If you can not find a place to host your
files there are many web hosts like
I have connections to all of my websites: I run the webring
for Bjork which I was given from Bjork.com directly, I do write (and get
responses back) from a few former members of the Sugarcubes, and are linked
from their Bad Taste shop in
So basically what this boils down to is if you need a file
of mine, please host it yourself! We both have the same interest, but not the
same band width. Get a web host like
Thanks,
