Just a word of warning. Bluehost recently suspended my account for hosting a 700MB CD image of the Rio Central software. This was the entirety of the suspension email:

Dear Rob:

Your web hosting account for robricc.com has been deactivated (reason: terms of service violation).
Although your web site has been disabled, your data may still be available.

If you feel this deactivation is in error, please contact customer support as
soon as possible.

Thank you,

No mention of why, no trouble ticket opened. It took 2 days to be able to get at my data, and then another day after that to get the site back live.

I still don't know if their objection to my hosting of the CD was because of space/bandwidth or a potential copyright violation. Anyway, I'm done with them. There's no point in paying for gobs of space that's unusable.
