I don't get why Quote Unquote Records is bothering fighting w/ the host to get the site back up. Granted I don't know if they're stuck in a contract or otherwise have reasons to sick w/ their hoster but my gut reaction is to go find another hoster and give the original hoster the finger.


> Jeff is being denied access to his data by the host and he says that since he had a crash on his local hard drive, he no longer has copies of any of the content that was on the Quote Unquote Records server.

I'm assuming they want the site up just long enough to move it.


Ouch. Behold the dangers of keeping your data "in the cloud".


They should sue the host into the stone age.
