So I was stoked to see a lot of space for two dollars a month, but then they have a set up fee.

Service Price
Gigabyte Package (billed annually) 95.40
Setup Fee (one-time only) 29.95
75% Off First Year of Web Hosting -71.55
Credit towards an Overture account 0.00
Total: 53.80

Kinda looses the appeal of the deal. turns out to be more like 4 bucks a month.

Also what about the legality of the content I can put on these servers? What if I want to upload my music/movies/etc. to the webspce, not share it with anyone but just have it there, can I do that and not get busted? I mean what does anyone need 2.5 gigs for personal use legitly?

Also anyone have a code to get out fo gimp setup fee?

Actually, it's 8 dollars a month after the first year.

Weak. I was going to sign up for that, but I'm not interested in the $30 setup fee. If it was $10 or $15, maybe.

That setup fee lost my business too.
