1) Public_html
2) Space is unmetered. Please read the Terms of Service.
3) Files placed in public_html are your web root. For example if I placed "page.php" in public_html, then it would be visible at example.com/page.php.

Only if you have the legal rights to redistribute that file. Cause if you don't, I'll be along to revoke all access permanently.

Make sure you have the legal rights to be uploading the music I see you uploading as well, and re-read the TOS regarding Copyrighted MP3's.

I see you've found the 16mb hard-limit on FTP as well, anything larger has to be uploaded via file manager, to a maximum of 64mb in one shot.

I wrote "VisualStudio" because this is very big amount of data(I wanted to write if i can upload a big data file.)
I'm not going to upload programs(even that Visual Studio trial 90 days is for everyone), I want this hosting only for MP3 files. that's all ;)

To quote the TOS:

* Illegal Material: This includes copyrighted works, commercial audio, video, or music files, and any material in violation of any Federal, State, or Local regulation. You may not store copyrighted Mp3s or videos on your webspace in any way shape or form.

So basically if it's not your music (as in, you didn't write it and produce it), it shouldn't be on your hosting account.

how many simultaneous processes couldI run on my hosting, what is the limit? I know hostings where "they allow you to have up to 25 simultaneous processes running on the hosting".

The limit on free is 20 executing together at once; more than that will cause a temporary High Resource Usage suspension.

That said you're more likely to hit the limits on CPU/RAM which are there to prevent a rogue script (or one that intentionally tries to cripple the server) from taking the server to a crawl on its own.
