So, as it turns out, our dear website host's "unlimited" bandwidth is only unlimited as long as they think it should be. If they feel someone is "using too much bandwidth", they shut down the website. Not only the file that's being downloaded, but the entire website!
In other words, if we were lucky and too many visitors downloaded our demo, they would shut down the blog, forum and pre-order page.
There are numerous solutions that seem tempting at first, but that impose limits when you read the fine print. Dropbox for example, has a 20GB transfer limit, and each time this is exceeded the longer your public files will become unavailable for longer, so Dropbox is sadly not an alternative.
Do any of you have any good ideas on where we could host the file?
We will in either case host a .torrent file for people with a torrent client installed.
