Looking for a fast file hosting service

Hi,

I'm looking for a file hosting service with great download speed. The host our site uses is decent, but we've got several largish (20-70MB) videos (FLV) that sometimes stream at a crawl. We'd like to host just the videos on a faster server, without switching the entire site over. We don't necessarily need a free service, but would like to avoid the expense of a dedicated server. We don't want to use YouTube because we don't want the videos public.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

So you need to store the files on the web hosting account or you are planning to stream them?

I assume the dedicated server should be fine for this. Dual core with 1GB RAM. Actually that is not rare dedicated server offer and you can do the search and find out more information

I'd recommend using Amazon s3 to host your video files.

What for? Do you need to share files? Or what do you need that for?

My Suggestion would be Virtual Private Server. I believe you are currently hosted on a shared hosting solution and that's the reason you don't receive what you need.

file hosting can't be used for the file sharing in any way

If you are still in search of reliable place to order hosting solution suitable for your needs, I can put forward a suggestion to have a look at pacifichost.com plans, as they are designed for high bandwidth and CPU usage web sites.
I have heard many good things about this provider and decided to recommend it to you.

I assume you understand that web hosting service will be the cheap for you only.
And you decide if that is cheap or not
But in any case the cheper not the better
