Amazon S3 Simple Storage Solution. Current pricing is 20 cents per gig in downloads. (new pricing takes effect in june). 15 cents per gig to store data.

Actually I think it is ideal for smaller content providers because it has no minium monthly price requirement. I actually was billed for 2 cents last month. so for example if you're going to do 200 GB in traffic/month it'd only cost you $35-$40 instead of having to tax your existing servers, or get some bandwidth plan with a minimum monthly commit.

Also it's a nice solution for a document backups.

The downside is it is a bit tricky to setup unless you know what you're doing.
