OT: On-line storage space…?

Would any of you happen to know of an inexpensive place to upload video clips for clients where I could send the client a web link where they could download the files?

I ask because my ISP (Comcast) recently upgraded the file storage space from 25 MB to 1 GB at no additional charge.

Since the upgrade, it has become very, very unreliable. Takes 5 or 6 tries to do the upload, not available at times, and the most recent one: All of my uploaded files simply disappeared. The ISP says that I must have deleted them. I did not. I have doing this kind of thing for years. I know what to do and what not to do.

The most reliable on-line storage space I have had is I-Backup. It’s a small amount of space, (to my knowledge) can’t do web download links, but it is very rock-solid reliable. Costs $5 a month.

Anyway, just wondering if you all may know of a way to get about a few hundred MB of space that does download links and for not much cost. I do not need to host a web page, per se. Just need general purpose space where clients can download (Vegas) video samples.

Thanks!

Take a look at Vimeo.com. Vimeo limits you to 500mb of uploads a week.

What about sites like YouSendIt or Civil Netizen?
Here's a list of FTP sites for reasonable prices.

Ah, someone else less than thrilled with Comcast recently - also

to the sender after 4 days with stupid message about Comcast
not responding for 4 days.
