[rdiff-backup-users] Re: offsite service providers?

[Richard Steven Hack]

The Dreamhost ISP is offering a file hosting option for about $2.50 per 
GB ONE-TIME payment to host the files FOREVER. That's about as cheap as 
it gets for file hosting. Those guys tend to be crazy, but the price is 
right.

I don't know if they have a way to set up with rdiff-backup to their 
storage, but you might contact them and see if they can do a deal.

At the moment, I think it's only open to Dreamhost Web hosting 
customers, but at $9.95 for their basic hosting plan (which BTW gives 
you a couple hundred GB of Web space in itself which some people use to 
store files, plus a terabyte or more of download bandwidth), basically 
it would cost you $10/month to use their Files Forever service plus the 
one-time payment per GB.

They are marketing this as a service for content providers - they 
provide a mechanism for "loaning" and "selling" access to the files to 
other people. But they also say it can be used for archive storage of 
private files.
