MediaFire

MediaFire is an online file hosting solution that enables you to upload and share files in a very easy way.

The "Basic" plan is starting with 10GB (up to 50GB), BUT evern if apparently you start at 10 GB which can be increased up to 50 GB (-) if you make promotion action like sharing things on Facebook G+ and Twitter. As anonymous user, captcha codes looks shorts, and as a plus, you are not forced with "tricks" to become a premium user (the "download" button is visible) and you can get a (+) password protection to your files on sharing. Free users can upload files up to 200MB in size, and image files can be (-) no larger than 25MB/file. (+)You can resume a download for up to 24 hours from when you first clicked the download link. (+) For free accounts, there is currently no time limit on how long uploaded files will be stored as long as you access your account.

Online file storage doesn't get easier than this, in my experience anyway. Unlimited uploading and downloading are available for free, and you don't even need to create an account. Plus as long as you use the same computer, your files are remembered and you can save them in folders even if you have no account.

If you want something more than a 200mb per file limit, any of three pro packs will give you 10Gb per file, with increasing hotlinking and other bonuses as you buy bigger and better. Top of the line facilities include enough space to store and manipulate a couple of million documents or at least a half million mp3 files - a terabyte of storage, in fact. This doesn't come without a deluxe price - $70 gets you all the bells and whistles, but you can still get onto the pro ladder and get that 10gb file size limit for as little as $9 a month.

If you want to keep your money but also want more convenience, even a free account allows you to handle your files from any computer, anywhere. The only major restrictions are that free users have to get their downloads via the mediafire site, and the file size is lower. Paid users of any flavor can share direct hotlinks and get that chunky 10gb file option.

In practice, using the service as a free and account-less user is perfect for occasional needs. 200mb isn't huge, but still isn't stingy either and unless you're uploading movies or entire CDs or big graphics, it will serve for many uses. You remain anonymous and yet can still find and organize your files as long as you use the same device to upload, and don't delete your cookies.

If you want to pass along files that are too large for email, but not above that 200mb limit, this is as easy as it gets. Recommended.

After seeing dropbox destroying download links, this seems okay at avoiding this.

I've realized it is not the site's fault for having malicious ads (which is why I gave a higher rating than before), as it is the ad network prone to attack. Thanks to this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mgs8h2pu-1I instead of clicking on the true download button (I said true because ads can be deceptive on the display) you would right-click on it instead and "save link as" or something similar (I'm using Google Chrome by the way). Just make sure your browser is up to date and so is your anti-malware software.

I would rather have anti-malware and avoid triggering ads than to use an ad-blocker because using ad-blockers could cause the site to do what photobucket have done.

I do dislike when ads do these following:
-Popups, and new tabs being opened.
-Do anything else besides closing when I wanted to close if it is a in-window box that prevents me from using the site (fake close buttons are examples of this)
-Redirects to any scam sites (tech support scams, congratulations), Amazon cards or just about any site.
-Drive-by downloads.

But I do dislike when sites be fallen because of the overuse of ad blockers AND that nobody is reporting them, causing attacks to be secret and makes this entire situation even worse.

If you are a professional anti-malware company that voluntarily help with websites be safe (I'm looking at you, malwarebytes), please at least weekly check this site' ad network. It's a popular site and that can be a big target for a large number of users.

They scam you by charging you an extra month and putting you automatically on a recurring plan.
