Are there any free servers which allow hosting big files?
Edited on Sun Jun-05-05 08:58 PM by CanuckAmok
I have a few rare MP3 tracks I want to post and let others download. As far as I can tell, the copyright holders are no longer in business, or aren't interested in managing their property.

Oh, and I want to post some of my own stuff there, too.

Any free servers which would allow me to host, say, 500MB?

I don't think you will find free hosting for unlimited downloads.


You can get 25 downloads with ... http://www.yousendit.com

3. Try Yousendit.com
Or rapidshare.de; both handle large files, but I am highly annoyed most of the time with rapidshare, because they only let you download a certain amount per hour, and they make you wait for upwards of a minute and a half before you can even download something. In addition, their system sucks--people have a hard time figuring out how to get to the actual download page.

Here's a link I posted awhile ago to another group--it has some good information:
