I'd rather suggest to compress nonetheless; there's solutions out
there that do compress very large files into a number of smaller ones
with the user specifying the upper limit, like classical floppy or a
650 MB CD (ideal for backups and archiving, particularly for large
amounts of RAW files from DSLR).

Of course, TB's built-in solution would smooth the work-flow a bit,
nonetheless TB still does not compress, which means you still send out
70 MB instead of perhaps only 25 MB. As long as you don't try sending
already compressed files like JPEGs.

My compressor of choice: www.squeez.com. Current version is 4.2, a
beta for 5.x is already tested.
