What type of internet service do you have? If it's DSL or 56k (god forbid), no.

yea you aren't going to find that for $15/month...

not for that much disk space, and even more so for the bandwidth to move that disk space

If you do end up finding a web host that offers 200Gb for $15/month, it won't be a quality one.

[Cheap ass unrealistic expectations]

I want 200GB disk space/600000GB bandwidth for $5/mo.

Where can I find a web host which offers that?

Of course it has to be reliable with top notch 24/7/365 support :p

Dreamhost gives you 300GB for $16. Right now I'm getting 250GB for $8/month


Hell media temple will quote you 1 TB of space for not much more (I believe DH is doing that now too)

run...fast

Uh no. MT offers 100GB for $20 on the grid. Dreamhost is running just fine, so no I won't be running, I'm not the idiot that runs away from a good deal, moreso when one registration is included in the price.
