What's so good about RS?

[silhoutte]

Forgive my ignorance, but how is rapidshare better than BT trackers?

[JA]

Only thing i can think of is no ratio and seeding...

[dawgeee]

1) No Need to seed
2) you download at max speed.

[silhoutte]

What about contents? Is it any better?

[dawgeee]

What about contents? Is it any better?

Yes, you can get almost everything in rapidshare.

warez-bb.org is the top warez forum

[Saroman]

Rapidshare is the best... i will say even better than torrents...

Because all the new stuff can be found on torrents..but for older stuff torrents are not useful...

Just recently i found a movie...that was never heard of but i was looking for it....on Rapidshare..

Actually Scenerealeases are only uploaded by Uploaders..but on Rapidshare even normal users do upload. so thier database is maximum...

I didnt have premium account back then..but since a year i do have..and its the best thing...

There are several forums which host the Rapidshare LINKS. i.e you get the info, u get the links, thats it..!!

Besides even pretimes are not so bad.. I have noticed that after any release on ScT, within 2-3min..That can be found on Rapidshare.. No bad for us to wait... :D

[dawgeee]

i've been premium user for teh past 1 year . its the best thing than torrents 4 sure :D

[Saroman]

IMO RS is better than ScT/FTN anytime... There is no substitute for Max speed and Content... I was just looking for certain print of World is not enough (007) movie.. found on some trackers..with almost no seeds..

but then through RS...am downloading it without hassles..

In case of personalised stuff like Place/Vault/AOM...That is relatively tougher to find because of rarity...

but for rest of things...Hands down RS is best..

besides i am unable to max out my connection through Torrents...

But through Rapidshare i juice out every bit of my speed ;)

Load of Content, Max speed, 6mill files + hosted...
Links uploaded rarely expired if uploaded with premium account,
Possibilty to host passworded files , possibilty to gain Premium points when people download your files and to exchange them with extension of Premium Account,On new year's eve you can exchange less points for more months...

And finally :

With 170 Gigabit/s of Internet connectivity and 4 Petabytes of storage, RapidShare is one of the biggest and fastest web hosters world wide.

[JA]

Errr, i get 150KB/Sec on one RS link, if i allow more to run would i presumably get 1MB/sec? Since i get 1MB/Sec on 5-6 torrents running simultaneously..

Well i dont have seedbox..

My connection is 2mbps..so my max download speed is 256Kbps. Well due to some overheads..it comes down to 240Kbps..If i am using torrents...no matter if its from ScT with 500 Seeders or from Mininova with 1000 Leechers.. I never cross 200Kbps..

But with RS i dont face any such problems..

Besides the best thing about RS is U have VARIETY...

like new print of Bourne Ultimatum was released a day back.. Now there are 3-4types of prints available ripped by various rippers..Some of which are 1 CD Rips and So are 2 CD Rips and Some are DVD-ISO etc..So u have options to choose..

And even in that there are different varieties.

like i know that certain aXXo and DIAMOND rips are better and all.. so this gives ur better quality.

Also as i mentioned RARITY.. Certain infamous movie which is not known to anyone but u have heard from ur friends that its a good one and u want it...where do u go :naughty:

Certainly not on torrents..:rolleyes: Because its only good for new stuff... Let one month pass and that will be either phased out or it will have no seeders. Who has time to keep seeding same torrent for a month ;)

[blackbird]

is it possible to get a premium account with the collectors account ? :D

[$SnoopDo2G$]

is it possible to get a premium account with the collectors account ? :D

Yes i think so, well i don't know if it's still like that, but it used to be like that, you had to collect points like 10000 then get one month premium extension to your collector account...

[Saroman]

Yep its still there...;)

10K points and 1month extension

But 10K points me 10K downloads should be done of the files u upload..

BESIDES 10K downloads from FREE USERS and not premium users ;)

[dawgeee]

is it possible to get a premium account with the collectors account ? :D

ohh yes , i upload to collectors zone acc , when there are sufficient points i convert 10K points to 30 days prem acc :D

look at dis :D

http://i24.tinypic.com/in4rgw.jpg

[blackbird]

looks good .time to collect some points .. :D

[$SnoopDo2G$]

ohh yes , i upload to collectors zone acc , when there are sufficient points i convert 10K points to 30 days prem acc :D

look at dis :D


Yeah but i suggest your guys to keep your points untill new year and at midnight, get 1000 points for one month means
that if you have 10k points = 10 Months premium :D
i had this last year ;)

[blackbird]

thanks for the tip snoop .. :)

[Saroman]

^^^
That was only last year ;)

Nothing can be sure of this year..:P

Although as a safe bet even i have like 20K points :D

[dawgeee]

ohh yes , i upload to collectors zone acc , when there are sufficient points i convert 10K points to 30 days prem acc :D

look at dis :D

i had this last year ;)

that was last year when rapidshare.com was newly launched . i dont think even this year we will will get to see such offers :whistling

[Saroman]

^^
oh yeah remembered that...because before that there was only RS.de ..so as a celebration that offer was there...:P

In that case no chance this year ;)

[$SnoopDo2G$]

^^

You never know, maybe to thank the customers and because during the year they had few problems...

so Who knows...:unsure: :lol:
if they do, i 'll sell 5 accounts :D and extend my account for one year :P

[Dotti]

Rapidshare is the best thing that happened to me.Oh and Prison Break too ;)

[silhoutte]

hmm...Now give a reason, i shouldn't switch on to Rapidshare. Thanks guys!

[kooftspc11]

you guys are all very correct. When combined with a download manager/acclerator you CANNOT beat rapidshare

download manager is the key

also....if you guys remember correctly, last new years eve they had a windows of time where u could convert 1k points into a month BUT you could not extend an account over 7 months. after that you could just make new accounts

[r77]

if it was unlimited download i would say yes its very good,but 25 GB within five days is great joke for me

[$SnoopDo2G$]

if it was unlimited download i would say yes its very good,but 25 GB within five days is great joke for me

It used to be unlimited thou...you can download 25GB today and not download within 5 days or download 5 GB a day...
it all depends...and it's not that bad...depends on how much you download...

[Saroman]

so i have multiple accs ;)

[yoyogi4]

pretty much if you know where to find the links you can find stuff very hard to find in torrents.

Matter of fact a lot of the "rare" stuff on demonoid is from private and public warez forums that have the latest rapidshare links.

[AmpeD]

What about contents? Is it any better?

Yes, you can get almost everything in rapidshare.

warez-bb.org is the top warez forum
dont go there for community though, boring as hell. thats why I came here:drunk:

btw I got me an rs premium on points for 6 mo's and never use it

[Saroman]

^^
Nah even communities are good.. If u find some good buddies out there..

Discussions are extensive and it doesnt take time to make some good friends :D

[awoeonip]

I'm still not sold on RS. There have been multiple times where I've been able to find files on BT and not on RS.

Now maybe if someone can tell me where to find The Mole (US) Season 2 on RS, I'll be a convert....;)

[Saroman]

Just out of curiosity..

is ur ID hyeok :P on some forum

[necrosis]

NO ratio, NO seeding, Quick D/LS, no chance of being caught, direct links with no worrying if there are any seeds...the list goes on and on

[tirthakrit]

Phew. Thanks Saroman, necrosis, and all u RS guys. Atleast some people agree that RS is the best, with its max speed, direct dwnlds , etc features. C'mon guys, people dont shell out 10 bucks a month, fr a premium acc, just fr nthing. Though I havent paid a cent till date fr my acc. :D
Like, Saroman rightly said, SCT/FTN will bite dust in front of warez-bb's collection alone, let alone forums like projectw, forumw and rest of the RS link sites/forums. No sooner does a movie gets 1-2 months old, none of the torrents evn in pvt trackers has a decent number of seeds.If u know the right places to search fr ur links, u will surely get it. All u people, get hold of a 1 mnth RS acc and u will know what it is.
@Saroman
I am also on the same ISP plan, that u are in Saroman. Is BSNL, if am not wrong. It gives me speeds of 230-240kb/sec, wich even TL and SCT cant give.

[Saroman]

^^^
No i am on TATA :P

And Night Unlimited i.e 9-9 Free ;)

I feel like i hav heard ur name somewhere...

Is it TE/Thinkdigit ? :P

[tirthakrit]

Nope. :P
Whats your username in warez-bb ? You can PM me yours.
How much is the monthly rental for TATA and also tell me which plan are u using ?

[lukee]

i always use ddl2.com for my software. it get thousands of results linking to warez forums......and always the newest version :) but for HDDVD's, psp games and movies, i rely on my 4 torrent sites.

[sickest]

the only thing better than rapidshare is newsgroups and DC++. and thats the truth. if anyone says anything else different, u should see my DVD/TV collection.

and if u cant find something on rapidshare, then your not looking in the right place. EVERYTHING is posted on RS, cuz people are always trying to extend their account for free by uploading all the new stuff right away.

but why stop using torrents? if u cant find something on rapidshare then just search torrents. its better to have a couple different places to look. i always search newsgroups first, then RS, then torrents. and i pretty much get everything im looking for.

[xtcstylx]

whats the limit you can download for a free user?

[sp0ngeb0b]

whats the limit you can download for a free user?

I'd guess that it's not over 800-1000MB. You are forced to wait several hours after downloading a 100MB file.

[tdigi]

I use rapidshare all the time.. It works awesome with Rapget and if you want to maximize the bandwidth then use Flashget :)

[raj3186]

speed and no ratio system, sad part is that its a bit expensive :P

[dave12]

RS is surely better than bt but bt is not only about downloading its more of a community at least for me though. I generally download what i like it can be from bt or from RS too. YEAH bt is free and for RS u have to pay

[TP635]

I use rapidshare all the time.. It works awesome with Rapget and if you want to maximize the bandwidth then use Flashget :)

does Rapget workfor free user?

[TP635]

[MrVictorRivers]

where do you go to get music selection like oink/what using rs?

[AmpeD]

where do you go to get music selection like oink/what using rs?
that why I switched to BT, the music is not as organized and its tough to find properly tagged stuff and good quality

[Saroman]

where do you go to get music selection like oink/what using rs?

warez-bb, projectw, forumw

all of these have decent amount of music... and if u search properly and choose proper links..you get perfectly tagged stuff...

I am perfectly satisfied with music on RS :)

[r77]

is it possible to download more than 25GB/5 days from 1 IP if i use multiple accts?

[Saroman]

Yes... I am doing the same thing :P

Because i end up using it in 3 days ;)

[sleepyy]

So where do you find the files on rapidshare i thought it's like yousendit.com you just upload your stuff and send it to a friend it seems i have stubled accross something i do not understand clearly.

Why would i pay for a rapid share account when i can't search for files on there? newsgroups have this function no? i don't use them either but this is from what i remember reading if i'm correct

It states for prem user

Download-LimitNo limits!¹

RapidShare reserves the right to close accounts, which are shared with other people.
You may download 25 GB within five days. This means in other words that you can download 5 GB every day. You can also "burst" and download 15 GB today and 10 GB tomorrow, but this means that you will not be able to download anything the following three days because we check how much you have downloaded in the last five days. 25 GB = 25.000.000.000 Bytes.
² Your uploaded files will be deleted if your account is deleted. However, there is a storage limit of 20 GB (20.000.000.000 bytes) for premium accounts. In case you exceed this amount for longer than 48 hours, your account will automatically be converted to a Storage XXL account. Files being not downloaded longer than 90 days will then automatically be deleted.

Is this not a contradiction?

now im quite confused after reading half this thread

[$SnoopDo2G$]

1*So where do you find the files on rapidshare....

It states for prem user
Download-LimitNo limits!¹
RapidShare reserves......................
2*Is this not a contradiction?
now im quite confused after reading half this thread


1.On Forums like tehparadox.com , search engines specialized in RS Links like megadownload.net
2. Yeah it looks a bit contradictive but they used to have people really abusing that unlimited download stuff...
so yeah it's normal they changed the rules to protect themselves and spend less money on bandwith...

Anyway RS is still a very good and reliable source for gettin' stuff...

Thanks i will look into it i have not registered anywhere yet i just want to do a little research as this sounds to good to be true to not keep ratios and such

[phoenixoflames]

+1

[Papps78]

I prefer torrents..

[azteca]

i just get a premium account but warez-bb its closed for registrations right now, anyone know another site to get rs links?

[tirthakrit]

Use projectw.org , forumw.org sites.

[lamonkey]

How is their delete policy in practice? Does "illegal content" get deleted quick?

[Sonnentier]

How is their delete policy in practice? Does "illegal content" get deleted quick?
Yes, but only once it gets reported by rightholders.

[snowultra]

ya, forum w is a good site

[wrongun92]

Thanks, I did not know that RS was so good. Actually, I was wary of viruses :)
The forums listed seem to be helpful as well. The only problem is I need to play for premium account :)

[Saroman]

well although no-one should pay for filesharing but RS is totally worth its charge..

[wrongun92]

Saroman Bhai, is there desi content as well on rs? ;)

[virtus134]

Hm. I think all of you are wrong.

For music something like Waffles.fm completely blows rapidshare out of the water.

E-books- Bitme wins.

Games- BCG > RS

As for movies, applications though rapidshare wins because of its variety and speeds. It's just expensive, and I don't want to upload and post my files just to get 10,000 points

[tibob]

Only thing i can think of is no ratio and seeding...
thats exacly the though i had,
but also its not as organised,( well i find)

[sumvell]

rapidshare is definitely the best file hosting server that there is.

[Saroman]

Saroman Bhai, is there desi content as well on rs? ;)

yeah there are 10-15 threads totally dedicated to bollywood movies..and some others are to music and etc...

Recently all the new movies are released there ;)

[wrongun92]

Alright thanks, Appreciate it

[lsw0794]

very good site

[waeldiab]

No Need to seed

[-fantom-]

the only bad thing about Rapidshare is it's terrible for lossless music

[lsw0794]

yes,bt's Defects is it's seed
NG and RS is better than it

[Giveaway]

i'd be glad to get an RS account, but i cant afford spending a lot of money :(

[pimfram]

fast, cheap (or free), reliable, easy.

[Dark Archon]

i like RS, no ratio system :D

[ghost716]

no seeding
maxes out your dl speed
ALL content is fast, so older stuff you dont have to worry about seeds or anything cuz its all off a gigabit server. w00tz0r

[Dark Archon]

i'd be glad to get an RS account, but i cant afford spending a lot of money :(

i might be able to get you one :happy:

[Diiyad]

Unlimited leeching if you stay under 25GB / 5 days. Fast speeds on all of your downloads.
