Extras pricing?
["Yes", we should probably using a separate media server at this point, but until we get around to implementing that, local storage will have to do!]
I can't find a pricelist for monthly storage extras, though. Lil help?

In the meantime, what about
Those are really the only three options: Add it to the existing linode at $2 per gig, buy a bigger Linode, or get additional storage nodes.
One option I'm not mentioning is to get your own server in the same datacenter; it'll be fast, but you'll pay for bandwidth on both sides. S3 is even worse, since you'll be paying for bandwidth on both sides, and it'll be slow too. Also, S3 isn't cheap.
I'd agree that Linode should really introduce a NAS/SAN option accessible over the private network, but for now, these options are all you've got.
@Guspaz:
You could purchase storage linodes, that brings down the cost to about $1.25 per gig
Where can I get more info on storage linodes please?

Guspaz just meant that you should buy more Linodes and use them as file servers.
Or upgrade your current Linode, I guess; pricing should be the same.

To clarify, by "upgrade your current Linode" he means "resize". He doesn't mean to add extra storage, since that costs more.
Thanks
*or is it across datacenters now?

It's across data centers.
