Reseller with tons of disk space and bandwidth?

I want to resell an audio file hosting service to my clients. I need a reseller that has tons of diskspace and bandwidth for as little as possible.
Thank you.

There are a lot of good reseller hosting companies, however you need to ask their support team whether they allow you to operate an audio hosting service on their servers. VPS might be a better option I believe.

It would all be perfectly legitimate audio files of lectures given at Dharma centers, for correspondence students to download.

How much diskspace are you looking for, 'tons' is really a broad term

At least 500GB bandwidth a month and probably around 100GB disk space.

What is your monthly budget?

I'd like it around the $50 a month mark

Go get a VPS with that budget, it will save you a lot of headaches. Check the VPS hosting offers, and then search the forums for reviews about any company you choose.

I agree. We'd consider "tons" in the 10TB range.

You might want to consider a vps or a dedicated server, I do not think shared account will be able to support your requirements.

If its direct file distribution without the fancy website portions, shared will work fine, however I'm not sure if you're going to find a reliable reseller with those requirements. You might just want to be his "account manager" on a generous shared account.
Otherwise, you may contact hosts directly requesting a custom, single account reseller package. This is much more likely.

I'd still say get a VPS or a Dedi, since it's downloading of the files, most hosts would class that as a breech to their TOS, and with the requirements he needs, he might trickle over CPU/RAM allowance if he gets alot of traffic.
