There's a difference between not making a profit and not making a profit for tax purposes
I say this only half in jest Tony but have you thought about outsourcing the task to India? The thing that made me think of this was that I spent most of 2010 in India and came very close to taking my CD collection out, one suitcase at a time, and paying someone to rip it into Itunes. I didn't in the end and the issue disappeared as I spent most of the following few years working from home; it was useful to have something to do during interminable conference calls (and possibly the Bear Pit benefited from not having a second Mr Angry).
I moved to self hosting when Dropbox withdrew support for third party linking (at least from free accounts) but at least they gave me three months notice.
