If you don't have a file over 4gb, why do you care? If you want a file that big can't you zip a bunch of movie files together?

I am a curious person, and i found some people talk about 4GB Limit of FAT32 on Android systems.
 
This sounds like a good questin for the podcast thursday.

Hey Phil, can you hook this guy up with an answer thursday night?
 
While not entirely certain this is the reason, this is consistent with my experience. Have loaded numerous movies onto my Xoom with no issue. Braveheart, at slightly over 4GB, would not work.
