How To Send Large Files?
How can I send a large file of 2.1 gigs in an email?
I used to use SendSpace.com and some others I can't recall which would allow a file to be uploaded to their site and then send an email. Likewise a link would be created so it was easy to just share the link.
SendSpace doesn't seem to be active anymore and I can't recall the other sites.
Which FREE sites are popular now? I won't be sharing massive data, just files with friends which would be too big to send via email.
Thanks.

Have you tried using Google Drive to store and share files? Assuming you have a gmail acc't it already exists for you.
https://drive.google.com/
There's also Dropbox Free. I've been using that for years without problems.

Also has a major advantage of installing on a cell phone to quickly transfer photos/files online to your computer.

Several popular cloud storage services allow me to share large files easily:
Google Drive is an excellent option if you already use Google services. You can upload your file and share it with a link.
Dropbox is another popular cloud storage service that offers similar features to Google Drive.
WeTransfer is a dedicated file-sharing service that allows you to send large files up to 2GB for free.

Sorry about the late response.
I'm trying to avoid Google Drive and sharing my personal information too much.
WeTransfer seems to work well. I can create a link to the file which lasts for 7 days.
What I'm really trying to transfer are videos. Hence, if I can upload to a video website where anyone can view it this would be the best option.
CensorTube blocks the videos.
Archive.org takes too long. The uploads are so slow it always times out even with smaller files 500M.
Is there another video website? CensorTube seems to have a stranglehold on the market as they successfully shut down all competitors.
FYI, these videos are not porn or anything else which would be controversial in nature.
