VPS or other solutions for streaming personal media.

I'm hosting all of my media at home for myself but my upload is just too slow for my needs. I have a 10 mbit upload link via bell that isn't cutting it anymore when I'm connecting outside of my home.

I'd like to move it all somewhere else. I'd like to have full access (preferably some flavour of linux) where I can install things like python or anything I'd like. I need a lot of space somewhere in the range of 500 GB - 1 TB storage and probably 250 GB Monthly bandwidth. I'll be running sickbeard and couchpotato on this and installing apache.

The cheapest I've found so far is $30/month for 1 TB and $15/month for 500 GB storage which seems very well priced. I'm not sure if that would be enough ram to have me and a few family members streaming at the same time.

Curious if anyone knows of anything better?
