  Sure, and Amazon has been doing it for the better part of a decade.

  Thats the point. There was no widely recognized host before that could try to challenge big "cloud" companies. Now since DO is around trying to steal the market with pricing (and acceptable quality), Linode needs to step up their game. All of sudden it turned out that they can give twice the resources, hourly pricing and still make money. Hail to free market competition!

    To be fair, Linode doubled some aspect of their plan [without raising prices] every year before DO even existed.
