Oh, that's going to be tough. Because sharing files with multiple users uploading/downloading at the same time (at decent speeds) uses more bandwidth then any other service on a server. Let's say you are going to be giving away free trials to a program you wrote and the files and installer is compressed into a 30MB so if 20 people download this file per day all month long would use around 18,000MB (or 18GB) so if you look around at shared hosting packages even a budget company is going to charge you like $10 a month for that (and it will most likely be the actual limit for the account). So if you start using that much every month you will probably get kicked off the server as they don't really want someone to use that much bandwidth. You know overselling (just marketing strategy as most websites don't even use 1GB of bandwidth a month).

yep there is and infact I'm hosting with them right now (check out my website at johnscompany.net), if you don't mind not alot of support from the staff the unlimited features (for the most part) and the cheap price is the way to go, look at the Unlimited Package at onehost.ws
