Hey guys. I need some help from the forum folk.
I recently got some media attention for a game concept and demo I developed called Lapis. It's an idea for a Nintendo DS game to teach females about sexual pleasure starring a cute bunny-like creature. (No i'm not kidding.) http://www.moboid.com/lapis
Anyhow, it got memed (Fark, BoingBoing, etc etc) and written up in game sites (GameSpot, IGN, etc) and thus my page traffic went through the roof and I had to take it down.
I think the traffic has mostly (?) died down, but I'm looking for a reliable place to host the demo for those remaining visitors. It could potentially be a LOT of traffic because the demo alone is 25 mb. So you basically need to have unlimited bandwidth. And I mean, UNLIMITED. I thought I had plenty of bandwidth but in fact I'm going to owe over $400 to my web host this month, just for 3 days of traffic.
So does anyone know of any place that has that kind of bandwidth to freely host things like this?
Thanks y'all.

Wow, that's awesome.
There's free, unlimited hosting & bandwidth of media forever at OurMedia.org. I'm not certain about whatever format you're using, but check it out.

One option is to use the Coral Content Distribution Network:
http://www.coralcdn.org/
This would help you take some of the load off your server while still staying with your current host.
I can also put up a torrent for you if you want, so people can download the stuff using Bittorrent. Email me at brad@bradsucks.net if you want that done.
And how much bandwidth do you have? Songfight and all my websites run off of ev1servers.net (http://www.ev1servers.net/) which offers a terabyte up and down for $100-$120 US a month. I don't know if you're exceeding that or not.
