A Change to Google Code Download Service

Or dream host's Files Forever. You pay once to put them up, and then they can be downloaded for free by anyone.

Oh, bummer. Looks like their replacement [1] is a cheaper version of S3, but they still charge for download bandwidth.

I thought that was a service for selling files. How does the pricing work out if they can be free?

Edit: I found some of the old text, it's apparently dual-nature. You can make backups that you/friends download for free. You can also have files for sale that people pay to download. No way to have permanent public hosting.
