Well you can set up apache and php to allow you to upload as large of file as you like.

However, for files much larger than 8Mb, the web form upload is pretty slow.

You can just ftp to your moodledata directory. Figure out the id number of the course you'd like the files in (it will be the number in the url for the course (for instance: http://www.yourmoodlesite.edu/course/view.php?id=17, 17 is the the name of the course files folder in the moodledata directory.

So if you have ftp access to the server, then you can just ftp your files to the course's folder in the data directory, and now you can go to the course and see the files there.

net2ftp does indeed look interesting. The challenge will be to interact with Moodle's authentication, and with sftp (expect support for ftp to drop off in the future due to security holes), we'll take a look at that for MyFiles...
