Move Big Files Across The Internet

Tuesday, May 22, 2007 Posted by Aman Jain

Its considered rude-and rightly so -to email someone a file larger than a few MegaBytes without a permission.And you may not be able to anyway,since many ISPs place a acap on message size (10 mb or less).So what are you to do if you need to send an 18 MB an 80 MB or even an 800 MB file to someone ?Online services make the task much easier and more elegant than burning a DVD and dropping it in the mail .www.Mediafire.com is one of the best on the market now .The free service requires no registration and it allows unlimited maximum file size,maximum downloads and multiple simultaneous downloads.The other services however also have certain unique features that make them more suitable for you.
