As predicted the site has gone down... Sorry folks for the downtime, I now have peeled off a meagre 100MB more... this will probably only last for a couple of hours though...
I have deleted the listen section and party pics too to save some more bandwidth. This will all return on April 1 ofcourse!!
I have a total of 7GB bandwidth, this was used this month like this:
party pics: 2.12 GB
sample packs: 2.03 GB
forum: 1.68 GB
mp3's: 0.69 GB
rest: 0.65 GB
I'm gonna have to find a solution for this though, this site has to be available all the time in its full glory

true, but how are we going to do that ?
I'd post a couple of suggestions, but as for now i'm all out of inspiration (blame the hour)
so ...
still glad it's back even if it's only for a couple of hours ...

Yeah the party pics are extremely popular
There is a simple solution: pay the hosting guys more
I'm going to change the way sample packs are downloaded by having a 'sample pack of the day' so people don't download all at once. If this helps I can let the site continue for the same cost for a while, but if it doesn't I will have to pay up and it will cost me ¤500 a year to have double the amount of bandwidth
Hehe and the bandwidth is going up really fast, probably I will have to double it again in 6 months
I really would like to have my own server, I would have 40GB of space and a LOT of bandwidth but it costs ¤150 a month or more... can't afford that now
It would be so cool though... imagine having 2-hour long DJ mixes on the site in streaming top quality 320kbps MP3, or 5.1 surround mixes of the producers' tracks...
Or....
I am going to find me some sponsors!!
Anyone who is against having an ugly banner on top of every page in exchange for being part of the biggest dnb website in the world??

P, have you written to Versatel as I suggested? That costs hardly more then Telenet ...
Then all you would need is a server, and I think I could help you out with that one ...

The Versatel thing will prolly cost 2000 euro a month
no option
I now ordered double the bandwidth, that should keep us going for quite some time. Donations are welcome
The site might go down today for the last time, but it should be in full effect from tomorrow on.

It's now 35 euro a month, which is 420 a year. Not so much that I can't afford it
I hope it now lasts for quite some time
