25 GB Free Video Storage Space Online

Getting Started

Signing up for a free account is fairly easy.

Yiou can create an account within 5 minutes. All that you're asked is:

• username

• email

• password

• choose a plan. You'll choose Free

• Verify your account by typing in a captcha code

• Press Create Account

Mediamax makes it possible to share photos and music. In our case we shall stick to Videos.

Under Videos you're allowed to

• create video albums

• tag videos

• play videos

• share videos

There are instructions on doing all of the above on the site.

You carry out all your tasks through the File Manager which allows you to organise files, download files, play files, share files and host files.

Uploading Your Videos

You can upload a single file or multiple files (batch upload). You may wish to create folders before uploading

But the interesting feature is when it comes to sharing. You're allowed two methods.

Sharing

• sharing your file through email contact. There's a compose mail screen that allows you to send a video file as an attachment direct to the recipient's mail box. However, if the file is too large, then you'll have to provide a link. You can password protect the link and even set an expiry date for it.

Hosting

• You can host your files. You select a file you want to host and put it into the Hosted folder , you can copy or move it there and you click submit. What happens here is that your files can be viewed directly through the URL: http://www.meadiamax.com/yourusername

To go to your hosted files URL you would have to log out and then go to the URL. The hosted file feature makes it look like you own a website. Anybody can keep checking for updates of your video uploads just by knowing your username.

Added Feature

What MediaMax XL Beta Software does is apart from performing batch uploads and downloads, it automaticaaly backs up files from your computer to a secure mediamax account.

It also performs regular backups of folders you designate  to your Mediamax account. If you're interested in this feature, then you could download the software and give it a try.

Upload/Download Limits

Under the free acount, you  can upload up to 25GB, meaning you could upload that size in a single day. But when you're downloading, you're only entitled to download to 1GB in a month. It used to be only 500MB. So, it's advisable not to backup files larger than 1GB in Mediamax. Video files should be split into smaller sizes so as not to be caught by the download limit. But as long as you're not uploading raw DV then you don't have to worry.
