In reply to Message (4525) Hot News -- Styx hits "supersite" status
By Graham (UK) - graham@styxwetworld.com Thu 03/07/03 01:08:37 GMT Website: www.styxwetworld.com Styx hits "supersite" status in less than 6 months.
If the measure of a supersite is in bandwidth usage per month, then Styx has recently come of age. We no longer measure our monthly bandwidth in Gigabytes, we have now moved into "Terabyte territory".
Our web servers have just been updated to deliver TWO Terabytes per month....that's 2,000 Gigabytes per month. Styx now has internet facilities bigger than many multinational corporations. And, hey, we only do this part time!
This increase in bandwidth is due to the massive sign ups of members, plus we have some very major improvement and expansion plans for the future. One of these is top quality "movie theatre" video downloads - these will be DVD quality.
During the next 2 months alone we plan to spend over $12,000 on producing new material for the site; this goes on location costs, clothing, models fees, transport, etc.
By the end of our first year (January 2004) we are forecasting the Styx archive will comprise over 20 hours of movies and over 8,000 pictures. A "12 month member" will have received all this for only $99. Buying all that wetlook material mail order on tape, DVD and picture CD would have cost between $500-$1000 .
However none of this improvement and expansion will increase our prices to the community; a full year member will still only pay the equivalent of $1.93 per week. Even our long term monthly recurring members will only be paying $2.33 per week by the end of the year (due to the loyalty discounts)....... not bad for around 2 hours of DVD quality movies and over 500 hi-res pictures per month. Why buy a tape/DVD for $40+ when you will be able to download it (plus hundreds of pictures) for less than $10.
Styx is working hard to make quality wetlook affordable for the whole community, and still continues to provide continuous free material to the community via www.styxfreeworld.com.
