    Unlimted at 10mbps max for $20/3months

    1TB block for $50
    Who needs cloud storage when you got the NSA?

    1tb $50 looks attractive. 1.2MBs for less than $7. It still looks like paypal is down for them.

    How good are they? Are they the best? How often do you have to use a fill backup?...

    They are probably the best according to other posts on the forums because of the no DMCA takedowns. But it could work against them as its illegal if you dont follow through with DMCA. I use newsdemon/highwinds ($8 unlimited) with a 10gb blocknews. It's been working great. I've been meaning to want to switch over to Astraweb but it like $15 for unlimited everything.

    Nah, it's $11 month or $96/year for unlimited.
    Code:
    http://www.news.astraweb.com/specials/kleverig-11.html or http://www.news.astraweb.com/specials/voucher.cgi?t=zgufplhxfr2cwsw
    btw that's an affiliate link but I couldn't find any non-affiliate $96/y special links.

    It's $8. Cancel your subscription and it will ask if you want to stay for $8/month (not an annual contract) for the rest of life or one more month at $5 or cancel.

    I cannot recommend Astraweb.

    I switched from Giganews to Astraweb for the price, but I just dropped Astraweb because of too many incomplete posts in the 320+ day range. Astraweb knows about the issue. I didn't signup for incomplete posts, so I am voting with my money. Unfortunately, I bought a 1 year plan from Astraweb, but they want to switch me to a monthly plan before they drop me so they can charge me more for the 45 days I've had an account with them.

    I just saw the 1TB for $50 myself. Considering that all I use are block account, I personally find this to be an amazing fucking deal.
