I agree, Amazon does to many things, and some does it in a horrible way, like FPS, I registered my account to create a subscription payment button, and to complete the registration they asked me login / password of my bank account. What if they get hacked like Sony? Also they recently started with a groupon-like service.
I only need somebody who provide me a server and that I can trust, and for now Rackspace it seams the best choice, in term of price, service and customer care.
