So let's imagine that I buy 1000 GB of seedbox transfer and 250 GB of disk space 10 times in a row... Will I then have 2.5 TB storage and 10TB bandwidth? Meaning that, I could upload 2.5 TB worth of torrents and as long as nobody downloads them they will stay there forever? But if I share them and the bandwidth is used up and reaches 0, the files will be purged after 7 days? am I missing something here?
That is correct, the bandwidth and disk space would just get added on to the total amount allotted for your account. As long as you didn't run out of bandwidth then the files and transfers would remain running. The transfers themselves get auto-removed after you run out of transfer, but the files themselves would remain in your cyberlocker for at least 30 days.
Now that you put forth that scenario, I do see how the disk space could become a problem if someone is just hoarding their seedbox transfer. I will have to give it some thought and come up with a way to prevent that from occurring, but the most likely obvious solution will be to implement a time limit on paid accounts. This way after X amount of time (6 months?) a paid user will get reverted back to a free account and then the timed limit on files would apply.
We're still in the pretty early stages of development, so there are lots of things we're still working out. If you have any suggestions please feel free to share and we will definitely take them into consideration.
