Just A Minute

MediaFire has an upload limit of 100 MB, which was only implemented a
few months ago, necessitating the rapid re-uploading of many of the
files we'd already linked to. And once in a while, it'll be mostly
down for several hours, but then so do other filesharing sites. Those
are the only catches I've encountered; we're lucky it's around!
