Please only choose 1 answer for each question, and answer it in ur honest opinion for DOWNLOADING, not uploading -.-.  

Lately, there has been a lot of megaupload links for dl, and as for me, it really doesnt work well -____-. I'm not here to bash all the uploader's hardwork, but megaupload takes way too long.  How would u feel to download a small file but in hourSSS -____-. Not to mention the disconnect u would have. But like if it's already a small file, then might as well upload it to YSI, wouldnt take u long -___-. YSI for most of us downloading is fast, while megaupload -______- going freakin 3.20kb/s -____________-, for a small 35mb file -______-, and u have to wait for 3 hours for it to download. I dont know about u -__- but that takes way too long. If u really want to share the file, then u r intended for people to download and enjoy it, not really a hard time for them to download right? If a small file takes 3 hours to dl o.O then a big file....??? u can imagine. -____-

   I know many uploaders would say that megaupload links or w/e links last longer. But is it really last longer? or did people just have a hard time downloading it and give up and walk away. Wasnt it ur intention to let people download the file in the first place? well if u dont' care how people download it, or if they download the file at all, then u might as well dont' upload it -.- U can certainly pm people the ysi link so it doestn' get block, sure it take a bit of time, but ur work is well appreciated. and again, uploaders that upload using megaupload or sendspace, i still think u guys are very nice to share files. And of course there are people who can only upload to megaupload and other things, so this topic isnt directed towards u guys.
and send space... it works ok with me, sometimes dont' work, but most of the time it's ok. But i did  hear others cannot download from it.
  im not the only one that dislikes megaupload and send space, i know lots of others that dislike it as well.

oh yes i forgot about rapid share :/ i think rapid share is fine ^^, it's not too slow for dl =)
as a thank you, for u voting i will upload a file in ysi for u guys ^^ ( you do not have to vote ysi to get teh file, u just have to vote in ur honest opinion and explain y u vote what u voted.

I totally agree with you QoB. Sendspace and megaupload go amazingly slow for me. And sometimes I'm just so impatient I close it and walk away, like you mentioned. I'm definitely a YouSendIt fan! They both take about the same amount of time to upload to, from my experience.

Use Flashget or Netransport for downloading Megaupload links.

The major problem is people not following the rules when requesting (i.e. YSI, Megaupload etc). Personally, I use Megaupload or any other unlimited links so that whoever is requesting has a chance to download the file and that the file does not expire or get blocked while being able to share the file with everyone else without the fear of having the link blocked. It gets annoying when you have to upload a file multiple times because some jackass blocks the link.

If you really want the file then you will wait for it to finish downloading

They certainly most definately last a whole lot longer than YSI

For those others that dislike Megaupload, Sendspace etc, or if you prefer YSI, then please specify that you want a YSI link when you are requesting. If not, then its the default Megaupload link from me

you can't block the links anymore, the option for that is gone now. The only way if the links are going to get block is if it exceeds bandwidth.

i like yousendit the best because its so quick and convenient. u have to wait 45 seconds for megaupload, ahha.

It's nice of u that actually listens to request, but most of the files being share are megaupload links only, even if u request it -.- (it's useless).

I love megaupload!  Made a thread two months ago and guess what?  My links still works!
Just like Evolution said, "Patience is virtue." <-----words of wisdom

Sendspace is fine with me too.

YSI...yes, it is extremely fast for me at 800kb/sec, but it comes at a price.  Someone could block your links or it will expire within 7 days.  To add more, after 25 downloads, the link will close.
I prefer YSI only when you see files 250mbs and +, but thats just me being lazy.

So I'll still continue to use Megaupload unless someone else wants me to use YSI or other programs.

[aZnGr3yFoX]

i dont really like megaupload because its slow but it lasts longer than ysi but then ysi is faster XD but i understand how someone would upload in megaupload becuase a few months ago i had to upload a big file (almost 1 gb) in ysi and i had to upload it a couple times and it was a pain lol too bad ysi cant be longer than just 7 days...

Thats the price to pay for having fast download speeds.

There still is the problem of people blocking links purposefully by trying to download the link multiple times. Either way, frequent expiry of links mean that you have to upload multiple times.

The only think I don't like about megaupload right now is all of my downloads stop at 50%

[BoA_bEsT_eVeR]

i hate megaupload for its slowness, sendspace is fine, ysi is the best

[Wishes]

yup -.-, so ur link stops, or dc, and u have to start all over with the slow speed. -.- again i said it's mainly for download preference -.- not upload.

[eraiza]

i used Nettransport, and guess what, the two files i tried to dl both stoped at 99% it took me like 4 hours to dl each T_T, and yeah patience is a virtue and personally i think i have it (i can wait days to a file to dl) but still do ya want to wait 4 hours to a 30 mb file? some ppl might some some people just don't have the time

again YSI is the best IMO, downloading is fast :3 and it has this magical lovely thing called YSIget
