All I'm really looking for is a place to store tiles I render offline. I plan to cover all of Pennsylvania, which by my back-of-an-envelop calculations would be around 30GB of tiles.
I have that much space on my personal website, but I keep bumping into my hosting provider's limit about maximum number of files, which is driving me nuts. My project isn't so much a non-profit as just my personal hobby, which I hope will someday congeal into something that helps bicycle commuters plan routes to work / school. I have enough space to do this with my current provider (Omnis), but they have some weird limitation about total number of files, which I keep bumping up against.
