Fastest way to send files between computers?

I'm looking for a fast way to send files between my computer and someone elses, the contents of the files dont need to be secure, would vpn be the best way of doing this?

The computers aren't in the same house, I already have a gigabit lan setup for that.

I dont want to have to wait days for the files to arrive there.

If you sent it first class he would have it the next day.

Unfortunatley that never seems to be the case with rm and the person being in the isle of white, also it would end up being slower than sending the files accross the computer.

I'm using uk online adsl which is 768kbps upstream msn is always crap for sending files its always so slow even with loads of ports opened for it. The files are x.264 video files about 50mb or so big. I want to send it directly from my pc to someone elses, I don't see the point in hosting because it will just double the time it takes to send the file there.
