Rapidshare or Megaupload or Mediafire or WHY

I think the Mediafire file size limit is actually 200 MB. They doubled it some months ago, but many of their info pages still say 100 MB. I read that they had increased it, can't be bothered to find you a source to cite, but I've uploaded files quite a lot bigger than 100 MB with no problem.

I think the user interface for downloaders is much simpler and easier in Mediafire than Megaupload. For example, it doesn't divert you onto pages where it looks like you've got to pay something, etc. The first few times I tried downloading from Megaupload, I found it so confusing and frustrating that I nearly gave up after a few attempts; you don't get that with Mediafire.

Also, it is not necessary to have active downloads to avoid the file being deleted, as long as the uploader logs in to their account every 60 days the files will stay. However there is a limit of 100mb per file, smaller than the other two sites.
