Urpad, vmbox.co, Iniz - suggest a VPS
I have won a prize @ Kickstarter and I can choose any LEB provider up to $48/year so help me pick one. I've narrowed it down to these three, but feel to suggest others if necessary. Which one to choose?
1.UrPad, 2GB/100GB/1TB
2.VMbox.co, 3GB/50GB/3TB
3.Iniz, 2GB/100GB/2TB
I will probably set up Shoutcast to run an old-school hip hop radio streaming.

Go with Iniz.
I've not actually had a VPS with UrPad or VMbox, but I can vouch for Iniz. My most important site is hosted with them, not had a single problem since migrating over there a few months back.
INIZ
INIZ.
Iniz +1

though if i see a programming error on the front end of a VPS, i wouldnt touch it.

Eww hip-hop
urpad is shit and iniz is freaking awesome... so...
INIZ!!!!!!
Cannot comment on the other two, but I am afraid I would advise against URPad. Support is everything but good and they have tons of abuse (at least officially) and hence uptime issues.
Out of all of them I'd say Iniz from a personal point of view
OK, Iniz it is. Problem solved, thanks.
Hmmm...option #1 has poor uptime and their support staff are former circus clowns, option #2 used to advertise on HackForums. Go with Iniz.
@kontam, an internet radio station shouldn't be that resource intensive.
I'm running one with mpd/icecast2 and it's using only 18MB RAM. (Link to how-to/tutorial)
Your primary concern should really be disk space; you can always relay your stream via another VPS if bandwidth is becoming an issue.
I know, but I wouldn't use that much bandwidth and disk space for now.
So hosts go ahead and post at HF! @Nick_A @INIZ
Why are you using the same avatar like mine? Where did you get?
That's a great choice.
no urpad please
NO URPAD!
Why?
Here!
Here!
And here!
There are a lot of others reviews in WHT.
I will take just ONE:
URPad, mediocre server, bad support, no response for 15 days: http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=1220316
Until now, NO REFUND, NO BACKUP DATA!
They do not lost my data. They only do not want to SEND IT TO ME. \o/
Go with Iniz.
I get 10 times more abuse from LEB than I do from HF.
