I need a web hosting company that offers a lot of bandwidth, at least 1000 GB to start, but hopefully they have higher plans if my bandwidth increases. Anyone know of a company that has a fair pricing plan for a lot of bandwidth? thanks

It probably isn't sustainable if everyone uses the whole thing. But 95% of their customer won't use it. But that doesn't mean the 5% who do will be booted.

There are just so many sites that have a small audience and minuscule hard drive requirements. These people could pay 4$ a month for a site that offers them a reasonable amount of bandwidth for their needs, but then they'll see 1and1 and go "OMG! Why pay 4$ for 10GB of transfers and 1GB of hard drive space when I could pay 4$ for 1,200GB and 120 GB of hard drive!"... and then 1and1 will have the sale. It's like Gmail offering 1GB of space... just about no one will ever use that much, but it's a powerful marketing tool... and for the couple people who actually need that much, well, it was a small price to pay to get the other billion users.
