 * Hi,
    I put files on Google Drive and use download monitor to protect the file
   url. It works very well until I have some files over 64MB. The files I downloaded
   are limited about 64MB. I tried to modify my .htaccess with following setting,
   but it doesn’t work. php_value upload_max_filesize 100M php_value post_max_size
   100M php_value memory_limit 100M
 * My shared hosing doesn’t allow me to use mod_xsendfile, so I don’t know if it
   would resolve the problem.
 * I hope there is any solution that I don’t need to move to another hosting. If
   I really have to move to a hosting with mode_xsendfile , I need to ensure the
   problem would be resloved.

 * There are many reasons why you’d have a 64mb limit – memory, server config.
 * You may want to ensure you use this: [http://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php#Increasing_memory_allocated_to_PHP](http://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php#Increasing_memory_allocated_to_PHP)
