Have a look at dreamhost.com, they have 197GB of disk space for you

But I guarantee you'll need a server for this

Recent posts on the Dreamhost forums looks like people requesting Tomcat, but doesn't necessarily say rather DH has added it yet.
I do believe Hostgator offers Tomcat, but I agree with yupapa, you should be looking into a dedicated server.Need a new Web Host?

We use dreamhost and also do podcasting. It's worked out pretty well since most podcasts don't take up a lot of space.

I'm not completely sure if the friend needs JSP/Servlets. I guess it's more of a precaution than anything else

For what you are asking for. You won't find a good host. I would go with a dedicated server or a high end VPS.

You may also find it beneficial to get a dedicated server due to the nature of podcast downloads and the common policies on shared hosts. Once the new podcast is released there's usually a huge spike in requests and bandwidth. This is assuming the podcast is popular, though at a 1TB/m traffic criteria I would say its safe to assume it is popular to some degree or another.
