Hosting Files

not sure if this in the correct section to post this;

im looking for cheap and cheerful hosting, to host downloaded uk TV shows.

My host says its illegal so i cant store them there

Any recommendations? will a good quality seedbox do the job?

To sum it up, im not in the uk and i download my TV programs and i get alot of people asking me for copies, it would be easier to put them on a URL (i cant host them myself as were only have 1mb adsl)

Unfortunately it is illegal. If it really is just your friends you could just get a vps, passwd protect the directory where the files are and ensure it is just your friends getting the files and you would probably get away with it. Dont blame me when it all comes crashing down and you get in bother and get a big bill.
