I am looking for the best way to send data for both LAN and internet.
Is there any software out there that makes it easy?

Over the network is to much of a slep, skype is irritating and attaching it to an e-mail takes to long.

Any people use something else? Quick easy simple solutions?

It would be for documents, pictures , music anything.
 
Well if you have to transfer large files to a server setup FTP service, it is much faster that windows shares.

You sure about that? I tested a while ago and it was slower! I tested using the default windows FTP server, which I think is part of IIS. FTP was about 30% slower than Windows file copy.

Browsing to a network machine does take some time. Command line network drive mapping is much faster:
net use x: \\computer\\share
copy whateva.file x:\
net use x: /DELETE

I recomment TerraCopy when copying files over a network. It can be paused, rate limited and resume from network errors.
