Hi folks, I'm looking at my options for DirectAdmin resellers right now.
If I can move off of DA without causing any serious problems, I might just do that as well. The combination of the CP and my current provider have left me less than satisfied.
50-100GB bandwidth, 5GB disk, stable php+mysql is what I'm looking for. Not a big budget, I basically have my little collection of happy clients and I'd like to keep it that way.

Might want to check this out. It may be above your budget, but if you can't afford that for the specs you're wanting, you need to rethink your specs.

5GB Disk is not absolute, although disk space is cheap these days, and 50-100GB transfer is a pretty broad range. I'm suprised I have not had more replies, "not a big budget" is a relative term mind you, I am quite willing to pay the going rate for the specs I seek provided service and reliability are there. Are there shrinking numbers of DA resellers out there these days or what?

Nah, I just think it hasn't picked up in popularity yet. Unfortunately, as the saying goes. There's a sucker born every minute. And those suckers want the easiest thing to use for the lowest possible price, and popular demand is usually Plesk and CPanel.
DA might pick up before long. I was thinking about offering it myself, but funds are tight right now, so that was a dispensed idea.
Just keep searching bud, you'll find one.

1. Threads about recommendations often end up with relatively few hosts names in them. The fact that you're after a more "exotic" control panel, doesn't particularly help.
2. You're not particularly decided on your budget. The simple fact that you're looking for a 50-100Gb account should mean (in theory) a budget that starts at $Y and ends at $2*Y. That's very broad. As for "the going rate", there's none to mention.
In any case, I can advise (more of a personal opinion really) that something inside me makes me rather distrustful of reseller hosting that comes at under $.25/GB of data transfer; "overselling allowed" acts as an intensifier of that feeling.
