I use this function to grab mp3's from one server and place them on
another (transfers 10mb files rather nicely):

function grab_mp3($in, $out) {

$remote = fopen($in, 'r');
# Remember to chmod download folder to 777:
$local = fopen('test/'.$out, 'w+');
if(!$remote) {
// handle failed request here ...
echo "Oops!";
}
else {
while (!feof($remote)) {
# Use @ to supress warning messages:
@$a .= fread($remote, 8192);
}
}
fwrite($local, $a);

fclose($remote);
fclose($local);

# Bye bye.

}

You could also use cURL:

Hth,
Cheers,
