if you like following WHT dedicated hosting offers one fun thing is to just see how long lasting (or not) these providers are.
Despite supposedly being 4x faster and 4x cheaper, these dedicated hosting offer guys come and go like moths circling a burning flame.
Same thing with the s3 competitor file hosting companies. I haven't followed this space recently from hotfile / filesonic etc etc. All supposedly way cheaper than S3 - but boy do they disappear in the night at times.
