#12"Strict no log policy" That's a great thing for many of us. But the price is quite high with 90$ (currently) per Terabyte. If the legal situation in your country allows you to download things like Movies, Computer Games and Software without legal consequences and your downloads are also available on a hosting site, you would be cheaper of this way. If you either depend on privacy or using torrents, this might be a gr…

Usually I like to argue alot, but I have to agree with you.

The only new thing is command line. There are plenty of sites that offer this; see filestream.me, btcloud.io, zbigz.com, boxopus.com

#15Seems a bit like put.io. Companies that make money purely by supporting copyright fraud historically have faced a lot of problems, though.
Put.io has a big advantage in that it streams the files to you via the browser. You don't need to download the whole file locally in order to watch it. If needed it even converts to mp4 and adds subtitles.
http://popcorninyourbrowser.net/ uses coinado.io to stream videos in your browser.

Yeah, too expensive. You can get competing services for about $10-15 per TB IIRC, they just have a set of Java utilities instead of the fancy Web 3.0 frontend.

#18I've spent the last few months talking to artists, and I've managed to convince a B of people to release stuff into the creative commons.
see: http://mercbay.com/#search/gendale
The films are now on BitTorrent, and all include both license information and BitCoin addresses where you can pay the artist.
I'd like to use a service like this to provide streaming of these files. But I don't want to use a service that has a business model that relies on transferring copyrighted files.
I wouldn't mind self hosting this, because the data transfer should be relatively low, and all the content would be legal. Does anybody have any input in this regard?

Self host + CloudFlare in front of it? They don't limit your bandwidth and will cache what you have. Plus that way you don't have to explain to your potential users how to torrent. They likely already know how to use a browser.
