This actually looks like a great business opportunity for some of the ISPs on this list to work together on. I got private email from a bunch of people offering to handle the hosting.. but none of their websites actually mention something like geographic redundancy.
It could be a new high end product to offer your customers. By working out agreements with a few other ISPs around the country, you wouldn't need to invest any more money... I am sure this can be turned into a big market. Anyone with an e-commerce application would be foolish not to participate if the prices were not astronomical. Some of my current customers would probably pay at least double or triple their existing hosting fees to have a second hosting location for redundancy. The big problem is figuring out HOW to do it. Obviously, if 3 or more areas of the country are wiped out in a nuclear attack simuletaneously, we aren't going to care much if a day's worth of data is lost.
