Cloudly claims we are generating "excessive traffic" and must find alternative means. The letter is below, but if any of you have a solution/can offer us hosting for the podcast, we'll love you forever.

Hi,
I'm getting in touch on behalf of CloudApp. It's come to our attention that one of your files is generating excessive traffic. We looked into it and it seems like you are using CloudApp as a content delivery network.
While we would love to do this, you can probably imagine that we can't allow operating a CDN on top of CloudApp for $5 a month.
We kindly ask you to find a more suited solution to distribute your podcast. Please let me know if I can help with anything in particular.

Help? (In case you were wondering, yes - I did buy a full year of this service specifically with /report in mind.)
