Default how to prevent constant downloading of big file

Have the experience of DOS attack on our apache web server on unix
which is some large file (mostly a 3 or 4 Mb mp3) being constantly
downloaded by many sites (or from the same site)
Any way to prevent this to happen
We still have 1.3.27 running
