People who can't use IRC or BT are few and far between, and hardly use the internet. Those such people (ie. your friend at Petronas), how do you intend to reach them (let them know about your site) and get them to sign up?
The average streamyx user gets 1mbps max, so they wouldn't take 160 episodes of anime at a go, instead, they'd probably dl 2-4 eps at a time so that they won't have to wait that long. You're inflating and exaggerating numbers. Also, limits are almost necessary, or do you intend to allow one person to signup, and let them share the account?
This might seem harsh, but you're asking for an opinion on a forum where most know how to download, even if they choose not to. Thus, the majority of replies are obvious, and you're almost setting yourself up for this.
Exaggerating the numbers? Streamyx 1mbps could download all the way up to 300gb a month if you let it on 24/7 running at full speed so downloading 160 animes is a piece of cake.

and also, i feel that those sites tat offer paid download for fansubs are ripping out the fansubs works....though they say the money are for server fees, but who are we to know how they use the money?
fansubs offer their stuffs for free, not for some1 to host them and then charge for downloading....
If you charge high fees such as narutofan or any tazmo site, surely you are taking in profit but RM10 per month, can you find me a place to put a server that cheap? Even if I have 100 users I would even out because of the server cost (more users, more cpu power and ram and bandwidth, so the only profit is I can download for free for myself aka RM10). fansubs offer their stuffs for free, not for some1 to host them and then charge for downloading....

About 4chan their senior members arent much of a hacker, mostly script kiddies who boast too much, if you want real hackers hang out at other forums. FYI, my personal accumulated damage is more than RM100k spanning over 6 years and this number is rounded down. **off topic**
Anyway further comments are welcomed.
