Question : Has anybody actually used the bandwidth and space of these webhosting companies?
Companies like Dreamhost, ipowerweb, powweb, promise ridiculous amounts of bandwidth and space, but does ANYBODY actually use over 20GB bandwidth and still be able to enjoy the low cost of shared hosting?I can't help but think it's misleading advertising because they know its unlikely anybody can take advantage of that without : reselling, streaming video & radio, porn, illegal piracy...etc.Ok, one answer so far, I want answers that are CONSTANT not "I did it once" because it happens, you can get dugg sometimes too, it happens, but not monthly./

All Answers: Answer #1I actually over exceeded my bandwidth by mistake one time. I had made a picture video of a floodin our local area, and passed the link to allfamily and friends. Somehow a local news channelhad gotten a hold of it, and praised it on the 10pm newscast. The video was getting played so muchafter that, that I actually had to shut the sitedown. So now instead of using a hosting providerfor this kind of stuff, I run my own server and sofar Time Warner has been leaving me alone on thebandwidth issues.Hope this helps
