while i live in Poland, where (in theory) internet services are more 
expensive than US and many west countries (we are told so at least), it 
looks like very expensive.

29$/month=348$/year for what i understand - Xen based servers with a bit 
of RAM allocated and 2GB disk space.

it's just funny in context of todays cheap 500-1000GB disks.

While i don't do this widely (too little money, too much work to 
advertise etc.) i have 20 clients on my servers just having their 
FreeBSD jail for 100$/month. There is 20GB "soft" limit - where soft means 
that you generally can keep more, but if i will have space problems i will 
ask to free some space.


The important question is traffic generated, not disk space, as this is 
what's expensive.

I just can't understand the basis of their offers.
