    Hardly any providers remove files, I think the last time a server removed something was when the X-Men Origins: Wolverine WORKPRINT was leaked.

    I'm not sure about the new coming providers, but the well established providers don't .

    I have Supernews as well. I am perfectly happy with there service I use 29 out of the 30 connections because that is what they recommended I do, even though that probably is overkill I still max out usually.

    An Excerpt from: A Declaration of the Independence of Cyberspace
    by John Perry Barlow
    Governments of the Industrial World, you weary giants of flesh and steel, I come from Cyberspace, the new home of Mind. On behalf of the future, I ask you of the past to leave us alone. You are not welcome among us. You have no sovereignty where we gather [...] I declare the global social space we are building to be naturally independent of the tyrannies you seek to impose on us.

    I use 6 connections to Astraweb and max out my 6meg dsl at 625K/sec consistently when downloading. You really shouldn't need 29 connections to max out anything short of a Fios connection.

    I have the 96/yr Astraweb plan. #2 in retention at a third world price. 11/month is just fine too. Used it in US, SE and AU and it's worked flawlessly, even with a 100Mbit connection.

    Damn nice. Astraweb is where I would go if I wanted to switch
