Ex hindu, so she had no time for false religious mumbo-jumbo and being half-hearted. She was all like just go out there and pray for the sick and feed the hungry already! I like her. But she moved to New Zealand :(

Torrents would work best if AB's servers were used to seed too, even if any other seeds would help. But we're implying no file size limits, is it possible?

Not really doable with our current access to AB, but we can have a tracker operating in 15 minutes from gaining access to a server with a mySQL database and PHP support.
In the most basic form, it's literally just the announce script, two database tables, plus a cleanup script running every now and then to remove "dead" peers (ie ones which have not connected to the tracker's announce URL for a certain period after their last expected communication).
Not pretty or convenient to manage, just serviceable.

For Games on Site the Limit is about 150 MB.

It was slowly increased over time. Used to be 75 MB at first.

that would leave us only with the work of reuploading the stuff.

Only? If you want to store hundreds of GB of images and upload a GB a day in average, and when a host goes done 100GB within a week, have fun! Also, we would need several such people as a back-up.

So the limit is arbitrary or we actually have a set figure we can't go above?

EDIT: Idea 3, amazon cloud servers are pretty cheap nowadays.

well, our computers would still be quite busy, but we wouldn't have to do all the checking work.
