an example would be i could provide you with a streaming server with 16 1.5tb hd's a few ssd drives for caching and 2500mbps bandwith for $4000 a month less then half of what your thinking of with your cdn idea.
Thank you Sandman. Excellent information. I'm still connecting all the dots for this project. But when I'm ready I will be in touch. Still kicking myself for missing your $1 special a while back (for something else entirely).

In the meantime, I'd be appreciative to anyone who can shoot other holes in my plan/logic/math/whatever. In other words, if I'm a fucktard, here's your chance to tell me why.
