rapidshare.com might also be something
as i'v seen there is no limit to the file size. the drawback for a free user is that a file is deleted after 30 days if i understand that correctly. If it's just about giving someone a video file for mad requests that should work, if you want to keep the file available it probably isn't a good solution.
Setsuna:
A second list updating, curtesy of some contacts. Unconfirmed as of yet but...
- MegaUpload - Closed.
- FileServe - Closed. Does not sell premium.
- FileJungle - Deleting files. Locked in the U.S..
- UploadStation - Deleting accounts. Locked in US.
- FileSonic - the news is arbitrary (under FBI investigation).
- Uploading.com - Deleting accounts.
- VideoBB - Closed! would disappear soon.
- Uploaded - Banned U.S. and the FBI went after the owners who are gone.
- FilePost - Deleting all material (so will leave executables, pdfs, txts)
- Videoz - closed and locked in the countries affiliated with the USA.
- 4shared - Deleting files with copyright and waits in line at the FBI.
- MediaFire - Called to testify in the next 90 days and it will open doors pro FBI
- Org torrent - could vanish with everything within 30 days "he is under criminal investigation"
- Network Share mIRC - awaiting the decision of the case to continue or terminate Torrente everything.
- Koshiki - operating 100% Japan will not join the SOUP / PIPA
- Shienko Box - 100% working china / korea will not join the SOUP / PIPA
- ShareX BR - group UOL / BOL / iG say they will join the SOUP / PIPA
Forgive the spelling errors, this is hot off the presses, and I am still conducting further investigations.
Some of the contacts are geared towards other reasons, so are focused on other things, but some of the things we need are in these reports, so I'll continue to keep an ear out.
It looks like though that we're seeing a full court press, with Megaupload being a leading shot on a much bigger sweep. It's not exactly new either - this is a year and a half to two years in the making.

It'll fit on the lower end (500MB max per file, unless you have a premium account) and it seems like it'll be on the short list.

Mediafire has a 200MB per file limit, which it enforces (arbituarily) at +/-10MB which can prove problematic.
The associated problem is this - due to the nature of said requests, it's not uncommon to have to transport 10+ full recordings at once, and you can tell how hard this can get. For transport purposes, it's a much better idea to not split a file into 2.
Then again, Mediafire may be subject to a sweep later on. I will have to keep an eye on a few things at my end.
