Anyone know of a good preferably free cloud storage provider that would be good for movies? I tried Box.net b/c I have 50 GB but they have a 2GB file limit.

Dropbox has no size cap if you use their desktop uploader.

Wow OP must have a heck of an upload bandwidth to even think of storing movies in the cloud, some of which I assume are greater than 2GB in size.
I'm envious

Yea….as a free dropbox user, I wont be getting much space for movies…..
but I am looking for a cloud storage that will also be able to stream via app or mobile device. (ex/ iphone stream videos from dropbox app) ….beecloud seems to have no app.

i have to eat dinner right now but really quickly in case i forget check out PogoPlug!
i think you get 5GB free and then you should be able to stream to media devices… i don't know the upload cap or anything, but I'll find out for you later on :)
lol i went to pogoplug to make sure i have the right link and i saw this on their features page:
Stream your videos, photos and music from your cloudStream your media to any device, including your smartphone, tablet and computer. Watch all of your movies, view all your photos and listen to all your music wherever you are.
but i'll look into it more :)
EDIT: oh nvm. i just read you wanted "50 GB" :P
i'll look into it :D
i'll look into it :D

ugh those small letters were killing me, so here is a new post :)
ok so here is what i gathered:
5GB Storage
Stream: Yes
Max. File Size: 4 GB via network uploader [the site]--//\\//\\--[using the desktop uploader, I uploaded some movies files to it [i got the CNET 10GB special] and i filed it up in one go…]
I doubt you would want to do this but you can host your own cloud by purchasing one of those pogoplug devices [starts @ $50 USD] w/ infinite storage…
5 GB Storage
Stream: Yes
Max. File Size: 5 GB
5 GB Storage
Stream: Yes
Max. File Size: 4 GB
5 GB Storage
Stream: Yes
Max. File Size: 2 GB
So if you want you have 20 GB right there and you could organize them by genre or something??
