Try out a project I am working on named biddle for your distribution needs: https://github.com/prettydiff/biddle

biddle fights censorship by allowing you to put your publications anywhere. There is no central repository, and since you are required to specify your publication point you just need to find file hosting. This means private publications are free (aside from your hosting expenses) if you publish on an internal network.

As it were I'm working on a decentralized file hosting / data storage platform called Sia. We are probably not quite ready to integrate, as Sia does not yet support allowing others to download your files, but it's in our roadmap.

IPFS would probably also work here, given that the files are public and likely to be downloaded many times. It works like bittorrent in the sense that distribution is unpaid and not guaranteed, but as long as you have enough seeders the file can stay alive.
