You need to put an apostrophe in "won't."

:wink:
god damn, too in an row!

Funny enough, "wont" doesn't show up a red line under it.

Video reviews, I assume?

I host with Dreamhost, and they have "unlimited" bandwidth, only care about how much processing power you use. Might be able to help you out.

Just written ones. I think I have a 5Gb cap so it runs out fast. I'll call my hosting service tomorrow and buy a better plan which isn't much more expensive than what I have. Perhaps it will even lead me to taking more care of it.

Thanks for the server suggestion, though, I appreciate it ;)

Written reviews?? Yeah man... if you need it, I'm happy to host for you at the famed price of "Pay me what you feel is fair".

But if you're cool with your other company, that's fine too, just spreading the love :)
