As PJP mentioned the other day when someone asked this same question... "Unlimited" does not always mean unlimited. If you read the fine print, there is usually some type of storage/bandwidth limitation. For the everyday "Joe personal website builder" the generous bandwidth/storage space they provide does indeed seem unlimited. Personally, I've called several hosting providers and asked them about their "unlimited" bandwidth/storage terms. I told them exactly what I was going to do and the expected traffic. If the limited "unlimited" terms weren't spelled out on their site, they did provide me with limits on the phone.
Your best bet? Call them, tell them exactly what you're doing, and ask questions. Unless you've got your own T1, T3, or whatever in your home, the cornucopia of bandwidth/storage just doesn't exist...or does it?
