Free File Hosting Made Simple

Hi everyone,

Last week marked the 3rd month of our very successful beta test. Thanks to the widespread adoption of our service and all of the great feedback from our users we’ve given the system a thorough test run and optimized a great deal of the distribution network for speed and reliability.

Over the course of these first three months we have been testing the feasibility of offering an unlimited file size with our free service. In an effort to continue supporting the growing MediaFire user base and meet as many people’s needs as possible, we have decided to limit the maximum file size to 100MB. The total number of files and total storage space per account will remain unlimited. The 100mb upload limit will take effect immediately and on Monday, February 5th Monday, February 12th at 12:00 AM CST all files over 100MB currently on MediaFire will be removed from the hosting system. If you have any files hosted on MediaFire that exceed 100mb please take this opportunity to either delete them from your My Files page or download a copy before the removal date.

We greatly appreciate everyone’s support and feedback during this beta and we’re confident that these changes will allow us to continue to offer the best free file hosting experience.

Update: By popular request, we’re extending the deadline for downloading or removing files over 100MB another week to Monday, February 12th at 12:00AM CST.

Tom
The MediaFire Team
