How can I increase the google drive quota limit?

So I have a HTML5 video player that plays a video from Google Drive. The video is more than 100MB in size, so I created a Google Drive API key and included it in the code for the video. However, I can only play about five videos until my quota runs out. Am I doing something wrong? Is there a more efficient way to play the video, without constantly running out of my quota? This is the error I'm getting:

{ "error": { "errors": [ { "domain": "global", "reason": "downloadQuotaExceeded", "message": "The download quota for this file has been exceeded." } ], "code": 403, "message": "The download quota for this file has been exceeded." } }

Here's my code:

<!doctype html>


<script type="text/javascript">
  function init() {
    window.parent.postMessage("ready", "*");
    window.onmessage = (event) => {
        var video = document.getElementById('video');
        var source = document.getElementById('source');
        source.src = "https://www.googleapis.com/drive/v3/files/" + event.data.id + "?key=<APIKEY>&alt=media"
        video.appendChild(source)
        video.addEventListener('loadeddata', function() {
            video.currentTime = event.data.playHead;
        });
    }
  }
</script>
<video id="video" width="100%" height: auto controls style="display:block; margin:0 auto;">
  <source id='source' src="" type="video/mp4" />
</video>
