If there are people who really use it heavily, then they should give them at least 6 months, I believe. Especially because without further development efforts, just maintaining the service can't be _that_ expensive.

- derefr 13y agoI would assume that such a service would generate metadata indexes (incl. thumbnails) that are stored on more accessible media. That is, in fact, one of the main reasons a technical person can't just use Amazon Glacier for this directly, in the same way they could use S3 directly for Dropbox's use-case.
