I use Azure now but I abused the hell out of HostGator for years serving 5TB+ of downloads a month on their "unlimited" shared hosting plan. Before HostGator I used another unlimited shared hosting provider but got kicked off cause...5TB+ a month and my traffic/php CPU cycles were shutting down other sites. Azure egress is not cheap so I redirect the file downloads to another site (mediafire.com) that displays ads but nonetheless serves my files to users for free. They are getting a bad deal I can assure you. My ads paid me about $100-200 a month and Azure charges far more than that for 5TB a month.
