I tried getting on Toonami Jetstream the other night and kept receiving a message saying it exceeded its bandwidth. How did that happen?

Too many people tried to access the site and overloaded it.

Bandwidth is the amount of traffic you are allow to have in a time period (as in how many people can access so many pages that add up to something like 1Gig transfer in one hour) or how many can be on the page at any given time and use the site... (20 people are ok, 30 slows down the site and some people get blocked from further access until traffic slows)

If too many people attempt to "hit" the web site, it will exceed its bandwidth. This is usually a question of the host server owner setting up limitations on the number of hits in a day/hour/whatever that a site can receive. It magically goes up for paid sites ;-)

Too many people logging on to the site. As a result, they've used more bandwidth as they had bought, so they'll be offline 'till the end of the month, or if they fork over some more money to their ISP (whichever comes first).

too many people are trying to access the site, sites hardware designed to handle limited number of people....
