Have you tried wupload - it's a new filesharing service?
It would seem that i'm promoting them, but they really seem good. Especially since they're new, so i'm guessing they're ofering bunch of cool stuff. Good speeds, at least for us with just of few Mbps connections, and there's even a possibility that you can leech several files at the same time.
Waiting times are also not bad. I'm speaking from a free user perspective.
Have you tried them? Thoughts?
Dont like it, the main reason for that is captcha. Didnt know you can leech several files at the same time?
Captcha is almost mandatory for filehosts these days. Haven't tried them yet though, will do.
Yes, i was surprised as well. I think it even says on their website that you can't, but i managed to do it few times. Probably some system error.Quote:

I just hope they don't get spoiled too much later.
Yea, almost everyone is using it. I am trying to stick to Megaupload and Duckload.Quote:

i hate it :)
Duckload's speeds are absolutely awful as a free user, or at least they've been for me.Quote:

Just curious, where are you from? I'm located in South America - Duckload gave me 10kB/s, Wupload 300.
It redirects me to some sort of movie streaming site...Quote:

From Croatia, Europe. Speed isnt to great during "peak hours" ie. afternoon and evening so i never dowload then.Quote:

Who cares about their UI when you have jD :PQuote:

Nice, that looks cool. I will try it, ty sir.
Just signed up and pulling files via Jdownloader its maxing my connection speed so I am happy :)
That's true, speeds are excellent. The restrictions are reasonable as well, you have to wait 20 seconds before starting a download and five minutes between files. Hardly a ridiculous amount of time, specially when compared with e.g. Rapidshare. Captchas are their only downside.
Just do a comparison on Alexa, and you can see that Wupload is probably the fastest-growing file-hoster in existence. I'll assume that there's a good reason for that. :)
It's not bad, but I still prefer MU.

I've noticed that all of these file hosters seem to have a predictable rise and fall. I'm sure Wupload's time as a rising star will come to an end eventually.
They've dug their own grave with that as far as I'm concerned. The effect wasn't immediate, but nowadays 95% of HF links seem to be down, so I don't bother with them anymore.Quote:

Wupload is the worst piece of crap i have seen in my life. Not only is the premium service slower than everyone else's free service, it's not unusual to have to download a file several times before you are successful.
Lately, I've seen a lot of websites posting Wupload links. Generally, I prefer good ol fileserve, but they're handy if you already have a fileserve link downloading and the links are interchangeable.
WU is great! Now it's almost everywhere and as long as they provide good speed Im using it.
