Taking this thread in a different direction, is anyone using cloud storage to backup terabyte quantities of images? I'm looking at a variety of commercial options but would be interested to know if anyone is doing this already and has any views on it?

Hi Andrew, Simon
I can’t recommend Vidahost enough. I’ve had lots and lots of web hosts over the years, and these guys are the best by a long way. Excellent, robust, cheap hosting (I use their Cloud Hosting but they do dedicated / managed etc as well), brilliant support - not just quick responses but also intelligent people on the other end of the line… also a great, usable, beautiful control panel. They’re also UK-based which I know makes a big difference to some people.
See http://bit.ly/T1Pa6L
cheers
Mike
