[cma-l] Digital Storage

[Bill Best]

Hi

Sorry to revive an old email from the month before last but I wanted
to add to the collective knowledge of the sector, there's potentially
a solution to Peter's problem here:

http://www.jungledisk.com/

- Store an unlimited amount of data for only 15¢ per GB
- No monthly subscription fee, no commitment
- Your data is fully encrypted at all times
- Multiple Amazon.com datacenters for high availability
- Automatically backup important files quickly and easily

More on the costs:

Storage
  $0.15 per GB-Month of storage used

Data Transfer
  $0.10 per GB of data uploaded
  $0.17 per GB of data downloaded

Requests
  $0.01 per 1,000 upload requests
  $0.01 per 10,000 download requests

The Jungle Disk software is sold separately from the Amazon S3 service
and costs $20.00

Regards

Bill
