    Had a quick chat with @brewster_kahle about the Soundcloud thing. To host a Petabyte of data for forseable future would be ~ $1.5/2mil.

        Do u think it's possible for the internet archive to buy out SoundCloud and therefore have the data preserved?

        Ever consider getting people to donate drive space with ipfs, or something?

        Look at @SiaTechHQ - it would lower costs to about $2000/month to host a PB of data. Can assist you in figuring out how to do this.

        Actually looking at http://siahub.info  it's only about $1000/month to host that PB! ;)

        Imagine a future were you’d opt in to shared p2p storage by responding to a tweet. Maybe filecoin et al will be able to address this, too.

        Possibility of just getting drives, loading them, and taking them offline?
