Megaupload.

What exactly is the download limit for free users?.It just seems to work/not work randomly for me...

[anon]

3 "automated" downloads per hour (after that, you have to type the captcha and wait 45 seconds until the next hour), and only one file at a time.

iirc they only had a limited amount of free download slots too... so in theory, even if you met all anon's criteria but there were no slots available you couldn't download... it's been years since I used MU as a free user though

[anon]

They have thankfully removed that, or so it appears. I haven't got the "all free slots for your country are used up" message for a long time. You could bypass that if you edited your User-Agent to make it look like the MU toolbar is installed, by the way.

That's good to know... I very rarely use MU though. I usually get everything I'm after from one torrent site or another, but for a backup I have an RS premium account... 15 Euro every 3 months is hardly a bank breaker. My sister uses it more than I do

I was thinking in terms of Gb per day/hour or whatever......cause sometimes I get a message along the lines of "you have to wait x minutes before you can download again".

RS is bad for backup cuz they will delete inactive files
Mu won't as long as ur premium

I don't upload anything via RS though so that's not really of any great concern... and there's always a warez site somewhere that will have what you're looking for... as long as it's not too obscure

There is a script on userscript that runs on greasemonkey called "megaupload catcha auto fill ++" or something that overruns that bullcrap.

[anon]

Yes, that one uses the mgr_dl.php trick.
