I've used the free version of this for a few years. I don't know all the details, but I was able to upload files less than 100MB and I think up to 1GB downloads were possible by a variety of recipients, and the uploaded file remained available for 7 days. I've been getting emails very frequently by them trying to induce me to pay for upgraded services, but my requirements are modest. I just tried to upload a 56MB MP3 file so that a person can download it and I got a dialog box saying "That's a pretty big file..." and it wanted me to pay for extra services. I couldn't make out if it was just a come on or they've changed the free version to limit it to files of under 50MB. If that's the case, do I have an alternative to send this guy the 56MB file? :\

The only way out of the popup dialog is to click one of those two buttons. I don't want to sign up, so I hit cancel and the send is cancelled. WTF. Sucks that YouSendIt is downgrading their free service trying to ensnare customers.
I don't know much about this guy. He has a yahoo email account and I do have his phone number. I don't know that he's particularly tech savvy. Worst comes to worst I could ask him for an address and send him a CD. Suggestions appreciated.
