Hey. I was wondering what you guys use for transferring very large or multiple video files from one hard disk to another over the net. I'm not too familiar with FTP but I'm thinking one would need webspace for that right? What if neither party had any of their own webspace, then what?

I've seen sites like Media Fire and many like them but they have a maximum file size limit of 100MB which just doesn't cut it.

How else can I get large video files transferred over the net?

Please don't suggest that we use snail mail or courier because I'm in South East Asia and the other party is in the West Coast of the USA, that's literally the other side of the world!

Any help?

Hmmm, but isn't LeapFile a paid service? What I'm looking for is something that's free. I don't mind the adverts as long as I get the work done. Then I go nuts with adaware :)

Any free service? Anyone?

Ran a quick search and this site popped up: Transfer Big Files Free - Send Large Files up to 1GB (http://www.transferbigfiles.com/)

There's also the free Windows Live Sync service (https://sync.live.com). I used this with a client on a recent project to transfer large files that the Windows Live SkyDrive service couldn't handle.
