eetaylog Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 Anyone got a rapidshare account? Im thinking of buying a premium account, but is it worth it vs. just using the free service? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidrick Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 It's 1,000,000,000% worth it. From a porn point of view, it's one of the best purchases I've ever made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eetaylog Posted March 28, 2010 Author Share Posted March 28, 2010 Most video files seem to be split into 200Mb chunks in the free service, are they merged together when you go premium so you only have to d/l one file? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. It's the uploader that chooses this. RS may have a 200mb limit, as that seems to be the norm for them, unlike depositfiles and megaupload. A month is less than a 5er, so there's not much risk in giving it a try Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, this is what im asking. Is it the rapidshare host that is splitting the files into 200Mb chunks, or is it the uploader doing it? seeing as premium users can upload up to 2Gb files, its a bit odd that theyre split (presuming its a premium user that is uploading the files). The only reason i can think of is that the uploader wants to make the content available to free users as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had an account now and then for a month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, Rapidshare has a time limit or something, so you have to wait a couple of hours to download another file. Annoying when there's 3 parts to a file! You need a download accelerator/manager to easily download multiple files.I found downloading through Firefox was fine. I've never lost a connection with Rapidshare, even with massive files.
