Issue Summary
As I understand it, CCK FileField uses simple PHP to upload files into fields using an HTTP request. I have shared hosting service and am unable to modify my PHP settings to allow uploading of files larger than 2MB using this method.
I know I am not alone on this. How have some of you solved this problem? Is everyone using this module uploading their audio files over HTTP requests?
The Image FUpload module uses swfupload to upload images over swf, but it doesn't really help me add mp3s to my podcast feed.
The image_import module imports images from a local folder into fields, but this only works with images and doesn't help me here either.

The uploading issue is one for the FileField module. Reassigning to that issue queue.
#3
See the FileField handbook on increasing your Max File Upload size: http://drupal.org/node/422474. If your host does not allow you to increase your limit through one of those mechanisms, you'll need to move to a different host.
