But my application has an in-app purchase for extra content, in the form of a non-consumable item and the problem is that I've got lots of information in there... Photos (both normal and retina versions), many short video clips and more...
How big can my package file be?

When sending a content package for your non-consumable In-App Purchase for Apple hosting, keep the following in mind:
- The size of the content package cannot exceed 2GB.
- The content package must not contain any executable code or symlinks that point outside the content directory.
- You can deliver a new package once your In-App Purchase is live. For your new content to go live, you must submit it for review and approval in iTunes Connect.
- To remove files, if your In-App Purchase is not live, uncheck “Host Content with Apple” and resend your package. You cannot remove files once you deliver your package and your In-App Purchase is live.
