    No, it’s not for the entire server, it’s just for your account. Godaddy Deluxe plan allows you 150 GB of disk space and 1500 GB of bandwidth. You can use all of this, and if it’s just for your friends (not thousands of people) it’s more than enough. Your friends can download/stream 1500 GB every month.

    You need a web host with unlimited space/bandwidth to handle such huge website including video files.
    As an experienced webmaster I recommend BlueHost service which I’m sure it would work for you and fulfill all your requirements. They have a really great offer for hosting & I have used them for over 3 yrs now, and have never had a single problem with them.

    If you’re very serious about it you will need a dedicated server. I would suggest you contact the people at http://www.hostamina.com – they can build you a custom package.
