Are there file size limits? If I sign up I planned on hosting a few .wmv's that range between 15-20mb.

I don't believe so... just watch your bandwidth!

Yeah, I know.... It would be hard to exceed the bandwidth limits though, since they're so great here. I'm just wondering because I don't want to sign up and regret it.

no problem hosting a 20mb file.

Yeah, I wanna open a site that features some live video from my favorite band (completely legal, they encourage the sharing of their concerts) and it's so hard to find a good Hosting Provider with reasonable bandwidth that doesn't cost $150/mo.

There are no file size limits so you should have no problem hosting 15-20MB files.

is the file limit now 30MB? [now that the package has been upgraded to 2000MB]?

Look in OPS under FTP>usage and you will see your usage and limits

badtz, I think you are alittle confused.

The file limit refers to how many files you can have on your package, not how big they are.
2gig space
30,720 max number of files.
5gig daily bandwidth.

In the past i have spoken with customer how uploaded 200+ megs files so i assume that 20 megs will not be an issue what so ever as long as you do not use dial up that is

30,720 max number of files.


I've been wondering.. Why the file limit ?
it's like an average of 15MB per file and if you host hundreds of small htm's or pictures, you're first gonna run out of file capacity rather than using all your webspace.. :confused:

I thought so, because when they increased storage to 2 GB, they also increased file count, so that limit can be modified.
Why not just have a 100.000 file capacity? That would be great.
