    i need to get 10 gb of video clips to germany but am having trouble doing it.

    i tried yousendit, but they have a 2gb file limit and the best files are bigger than that.

    i tried to upload to my website's FTP server but the transfer cuts out at 1.5gb.

    i burned them to 3 DVDs and went to mail them but the lady there said it would be $85. i think she was insane but i'm gonna try another place to make sure.

    what other solution am i overlooking?

    • a) your company's FTP
      b) the German's FTP
      monospaced
    • do a RAR file and break it up into 2gb chunks.

    • also if its 10 of clips, surely cant you just zip into smaller portions and then use wetransfer or somethingautoflavour
    • hollow out a book. put the dvds inside the book, mail at book rate.
      will also protect the dvds from being crushed.
