 Why can't I upload files larger than 200MB with a free account?
Solution

MediaFire now supports files up to 2GB in size for MediaPro subscribers

MediaFire currently has a file size limit of 200MB for free accounts because bandwidth for serving downloads is the most expensive part of running a file hosting service.  For example, 400MB files are 2x more expensive to serve to downloaders as 200MB files, 1GB files are 5x more expensive to serve than 200MB files, etc.

By limiting the maximum file size to 200MB, MediaFire can offer features that no other single file hosting service offers for free:

  • Unlimited disk space
  • Unlimited bandwidth to serve any files under 200MB
  • Unlimited downloads of any files under 200MB
  • Unlimited uploads of any files under 200MB
  • No waits, lines, or queues to download files
  • No daily download limits
  • No download speed limits
  • Support for most popular download managers/accelerators
  • Support for multiple simultaneous downloads
