    Get them while they're hot.

    And believe me, they're hot. 1.91TB of downloads since last night. 25315 total downloads. Amazing. Stewart has really hit a chord.

    Make sure and host the file a bit when you're done. My outbound DSL line has been maxed out since last night. :)

  5. It might be cheaper by randombit · · Score: 2, Informative · on Rolling Your Own Internet Connection?

    to get together with some people, buy a box, and colo it. Depending on what you want to use it for, of course. I know a group (~10 people) doing this, and it comes out fairly cheap, I think something like $50 or $75 a month for 10 gigs / month or something like that. Nothing too high-end, but reasonable for people just wanting to host their various sites (Plug: like bitflood).

    Or colo off a DSL or cable line, I know other people doing that.

    $1000 a month for a personal net connection seems really crazy, at least to me. The thing is, DSL/cable is super-cheap for fast downloading, and colo'ing is great for reasonably cheap server apps. I don't see where something like a T1 comes in, unless you want experience working on such a system and are willing to pony up big bucks for it. In which case, well, more power to ya, I guess.
