Or to put it another way, 33554432 bits / ~36600 bits/sec (upload side of
56k is still limited to 36.6, at best, often worse) = 916 secs, or ~ 15
mins, not counting overhead. So no, it won't take all weekend

Perhaps the bigger problem might be limitations your ISP places on email
attachments (assuming email is the delivery mechanism, of course). You
could convert it to mp3 and reduce the file considerably as well.
