Because with a limited number of invites, they have an idea of what kind of disk space can potentially could be filled up. I doubt that there is a specific Gigabyte of storage set aside for each account that has been created, (there's no way EVERYONE is going to use up an ENTIRE gig) But with invites they can control new account creation and prevent people from registering a million accounts.
This doesn't really make alot of sense to me, because if they don't repair Hubble a few years down the road they will have to send a shuttle up to drop it into the ocean anyways. Is it really that much more expensive to physically repair it?
As far as I know, the only MMOGame that ever attempted that approach was EVE-Online
Indeed, and it works pretty well. There's an avg 8,000 players on at any given time, however there seems like there is alot of lag (if you would even call it that).

It was MSN Search you were inspecting?
Ask yourself this: Does it sound evil?
This I would definitely use instead of my own hosting, as I would have the ads on my site anyways.

The hole won't just shrink right away. If anything it should get much worse before the ozone layer can start healing its self again.
But this is exactly what I learned back in Sophomore High School Biology, two years ago.
The movie that discussed it was even older. There's no way this new information is "new".
$200 for a fancy schmancy burning drive compared to $2 for a pack of magic markers? I think i'll stick to my "scruffy" handwriting.
