What are the difference between using an AJAX or JQuery upload plugin vs. using a Flash upload plugin for browser uploads, especially as it relates to the uploading of very large fies (1-2GB). Is there any reason to go with one over the other? Thank you.

For large files, you would really need progressbar and flash comes handy there.
And yes, you can show some sort of progressbar using pure javascript/jquery but it wont be as smooth as one with flash capabilities.
I am not taking sides here, but I find Uploadify / SWFUpload much smoother than NeatUpload for instance.
I would recommend using Uploadify, but thats just me.
