I was actually considering to move my site to a professional provider, but what if such a thing happens:

Bernd, they only "crack down" on sites that provide full episode, etc., usually, so you have nothing to worry about... I think...

Garak is right, Bernd. It's just not worth their trouble. Sites like Delta Blues caught their attention because it provided a long dialogue-heavy synopsis of each Voyager episode. When they scaled back, everything was cool.

We appreciate your concern.
It is noted and stupid.

When one hosts the entire bloody episode on one's site, one gets a letter telling one to remove it. There's nothing at all wrong with the actions above. (This was posted about on the TrekWeb board at least a month ago...)
