Lol you are the first one who doesn't want something for free... Well yea I
can add later on a separate server for paying customers basically script
sends 9bites max simultaneous connections = 100, so assume 50% probability
of semitones request I can securely have 200 connections per 1/4 sec, so I
can say 50,000 NASes per server. So the reasonable pries to maintain serve
would be like $.004 in case of a full load or like 50c per year per NAS...

Still I like the idea of free service. It does t eat my bandwidth and I got
lots of it anyway...

Sounds interesting, but how are you going to host a server for everyone 
to use for free?  Bandwidth costs money.  I almost rather see this as a 
pay service, even if it is only a few dollars a month, or year.  At 
least that would guarantee the availability of the service.
