Update 4 External file hosting

I've also been trying to identify an external file hosting solution. I won't get into names as i don't want to directly give away the industry I work in. But some that can relate can figure that out. Or you can just ask me via email. Anyway for 200GB and 1000 users they want to charge us 90K a year to host some files for us. I can do that for a fraction of that as Verizon FIOS is available in my neighborhood now :D They've made the same joke and said it's not the storage alone we are paying but the server and the redundancy and X and Y and Z. I think it's the name that associated with them that make the price to high. Afterall they do make the applications we use the generate our large files.
