File Sharing is booming. There are a lot of PHP Script which are like rapidshare or Megaupload. One of them is PHPSendIt (Free) which now discontinued :( and XFileSharing which cost $49 per website license.

File sharing like this has many potential problems:

  • Copyright Infringement
  • large file handling
  • lengthy uploading periods without breaking
  • Multi Server Balancing

If you want to get rid of them, make sure to modify the script to handle it.

how much bandwidth should I have when using this script? Must be on a dedicated server, mustn’t it?

It should be.
Dedicated server allow us to modify the box as we wish. We could set maximum upload and override several values shared hosting can’t.
