SharpeHosting -> Possibly the best shoutcasts around!

[BlueTails]

The shoutcasts are quite interesting.

I Agree, The Prices Are Very Cheap, Well Done, If It No Scam

[Steven.]

I love how you have copied stuff from www.lc-hosting.com hence the same text and layout from the shoutcast prices

Good notice, though, Lc-hosting's template was made by a tutorial on zymic.com so you could blame zymic =P

[Numinous]

Thats pretty funy because I have 1Gb space for £14 a year and a Domain for £2 a year so thats quite a bit cheaper than what your selling.

Hi,

We didn't copy from LC-Hosting...

I will tell our designer to change it if it's bothering you.

Thanks,
Nick.

Thanks,

Its not bothering me all im saying is that the layout of the text is the same its basically the same word for word apart from the prices are different

LMAO ive just rang the phone number on the site and when answered it sounded like some kid with a high pitched voice or it was a woman and they must be just redirecting to a house because they answered like you would your house phone

[splintercell!]

erm 2gb for £120 a year :S Or go to ax and pay like £20 a year "/ also no need to keep going

Hey,

My name is Nick.

Thanks,
SharpeHosting/SharpeNews.

I host shoutcast free..

[sambates]

The thing is that ax-hosting.com and lc-hosting.com they are so unreliable. Sharpehosting servers are always up and if they do go down we reward our customers with a free month hosting or something like that. I was once hosted with both of the above companies and lc-hosting.com went down 3 times in one day and ax went down 2-3 times in a week. They do not deserve to be a webhost with this poor uptime rate.

Sam

Precisely.

I was with Ax-hosting once, in 1 day they went down 3 times.

I have no problem with LC-Hosting, and they went down once, whilst I was with them (That was a month).

Our servers always up, and as Sam quite rightly said, we reward our customers with free hosting, their money back etc, if they wish.

Hey,

You have been saying that these hosting companies have had a lot of down time. No company can offer 100% uptime. You say your servers are never down. do you have any proof, that they are not down while you are a sleep? What datacentre do you use? I don't think you knew this, but hosting 100 listners @ 64KBS will make you go over your bandwidth limits unless you are unmetered. If you want qualitity shoutcast, you should visit www.streamsolutions.co.uk . I have dealt with them in the past. They have a lot of skills, and are dedicated. They have MSN bots to control every, and they also offer ON DEMAND for shoutcast.

Regards,
LTADMIN.

Edit: http://www.streamsolutions.co.uk/pricelist/ Use this to calculate the costs. (I am not Stream solutions staff)

Edit: I reccomend you do not buy from there. They are having trouble findind who their datacenter is. First it was the planet, then i told them it was Beyond The Network America, Inc. Then the owner said it is, so i asked for a site. Then he said he cant find it, but it is savvis. Here is the chat transcript anyway: This is a transcript of the conversation you had on SharpeHosting Support Center's website on Tuesday 02nd of August 2005 at 05:19:19 pm
