How do I host a large Zip files for numerous downloads from my website?

I expect t have a Zip file that is huge, like 10GB, and I would like it downloadable, on command, from my website.


It could get lots of attention and need many concurrent requests.


I have an HTML website, but have not yet chose how or where to host it. Can this be a Zip I store locally on the website?


Suggestions?

What is your upload speed? I would consider other ways of distribution like sending out thumb drives or using bittorrent.

This is for a press release with a large Zip file filled with reference videos, the largest part of the file. Perhaps 1,000 over the source of 48-hours, then trailing off.

The video are hosted on YouTube. I need to submit a CD/DVD as a reference to a legal document. This make it part of the entity and safe from having no internet or YouTube from removing the files.


So, a ZIP file is so other people can download the exact contents of that Zip file.


I do not want them to hunt for it...

They don´t need to hunt. You just need to link to the file you uploaded to mega, of course you need to allow the users to download it.
