The greatest part about Digital Ocean is 1TB of transfer at 1Gb/s for only $5 per month. I wanna start a simple web hosting company using these prices...

How did you arrive at that price? Their site states 0.02 per 1 GB which times 1000 would be $20 per TB.

EDIT* I guess you meant their $5 VPS allows 1 TB of bandwidth before they start charging you for overages. You would have to startup/shut down when each VPS approach 1TB of usage I guess.

nice!
