Hey, I'm looking for a site to upload +/- 10 files (180mb each!)
and I would like to have those in direct link for download at a good speed!
I want to avoid waiting times before downloading, rederecting or
my files being erased because of non activity.

AND I even wanna pay for it !!

Any suggestions

i have used liquidweb.com for many years.

ive shown these guys to a few other web devs i know and they have all switched over. they dont fuck you about and they are available on the phone 24x7.

Thx sweetjesus for the tip!

In the meantime a friend gave me another site to upload to:

http://www.pungsvett.be/

1/ max file size: 5000mb

2/ file erased after 999 days without activity

3/ download limit: none

Let's hope this one lasts

I pay for a hosting package through networksolutions.com.
Lemme tell you, it's REALLY nice paying for your own hosting.

good thread.
I myself have been looking for a new hosting company since the fiery demise of studiesinsound.com a few months back.

whatever you do, at all costs avoid a company called Host Excellence.
They are anything but excellent.
2 times in a few short months their servers crashed, causing me to lose all data. Reposting the website was no problem, but losing all my email and contacts etc, which they of course said they backed up but actually didn't, was quite a pain.

just my 2 cents.
Good luck. I may check out one of these other guys myself.
