Greetings All! 

I have been considering creating a website which sells On Demand Minecraft Servers, and wanted to get the feed back of the minecraft community.
Basically you would be able to start and stop on demand your minecraft server for something on the order of .35 cents an hour.
The idea dawned on me after checking out minecraft hosting sites and not needing a server on everyday of the month, but only when me or my friends want to play.
Anyways, let me know what you think about this idea!

What would you offer though?

Would you offer SMP and Classic? Can user also get mods?

Just curious, sounds like a good idea.

Yes I would offer a variety

Yes I would offer a variety of mods and game types.

Essentially you would have control over the server to start and stop it.

One problem:

You could not really offer VPS's, as users would only pay for what they use.  Also, it would not be very cheap to get servers to host peoples minecraft servers.  But, that sounds like a great idea that would attract a lot of customers.
