How can I send a .wav file via email? The file is too large to send ... is there a way to compress this file and then have the recipiant decompress the file or to have the file decompress automatically? Any help here would be great!
Unfortunately .wav files don't typically compress well, so you're probably not going to shrink the file much by compressing it. The way that large files are typically exchanged is by uploading them to some bulk storage provider (e.g. Xdrive) and then emailing the recipient a link to that uploaded file.
Wow...talk about a timely question! Check out the following blog entry on AOL's Mail blog:
