I gotten sick of writing customized file uploaded management/CMS programs.
I am looking for something that can simply upload large file and set dynamic permissions for the users to access and download those files.
and it must be very user friendly since the people using it are very impatient.
I have looked at allot of stuff on the Internet but what I would like to ask you is what you have used and what works for you.
I am currently looking at Druple to build the system but i am wondering if there is not anything more simple and specialized.
I have used Joomla to do this before... but it later on drove me to create my own program that the clients can also use.
Any advice would be appreciated

I have found that for big files not to use TinyMCE content editor because the clients usually have mobile connections. On a stable ADSl account TinyMCE is fine. But the latest version is not free anymore. The older versions does not work with the latest IE but has simple file management functionality.
Now its best to use your hosting software like cPanel to create FTP folders for when they have large files.
When they cannot use FTP (Don't know how to switch on a computer) I give them file sharing websites.
