[QUOTE="eetaylog, post: 1156361, member: 47491"] Im not 100% sure, and im just thinking out loud about it at the moment, but i assumed that data on a cloud service could be accessed by a web address. Is it possible in MP to use this remote address as the streaming source, almost as if its a virtual drive? Only reason im considering this right now is that another one of my 4Tb disks has died on me and it got me thinking about whether it would be cheaper in the long run to have all my media stored remotely in the cloud, and then just access everything that way. There are obviously a few spanners in the work such as the length of time it would take to upload 4Tb of data to one of these services, and also whether my IP would allow such large file transfers in such a short space of time etc, but it seems it might be an ideal way of running my media server if its all possible.
