I believe the max size of your app is 2GB.

As for storing content:

For security purposes, an application has only a few locations in which it can write its data and preferences. When an application is installed on a device, a home directory is created for the application. Table 6-1 lists some of the important subdirectories inside the home directory that you might need to access. This table describes the intended usage and access restrictions for each directory and whether the directory’s contents are backed up by iTunes. For more information about the backup and restore process, see “Backup and Restore.” For more information about the application home directory itself, see “The Application Sandbox.”

Source and Table 6-1: http://developer.apple.com/iphone/library/documentation/iPhone/Conceptual/iPhoneOSProgrammingGuide/FilesandNetworking/FilesandNetworking.html
