 The Amazon naming system, like the normal disk system, does not prevent name clashes. Just as with the file system, you can guarantee to avoid them by specifying "Real with ID" as described above.

-Using Amazon S3 gives you a lot of flexibility over storage (although you have to pay for it!). It also means that when a user downloads a file from your repository, it is sent to them directly from Amazon. That will normally be faster than sending from your web server.
