Also, I like how they don't gather your details like name and address - it's anonymous.
The problem is transferring files to my home PC. It seems that the upload speeds to the US are terrible. I find this odd since it has been able to upload 10mbps in uTorrent... maybe because there was a peer closer to its Malaysia location? I can only download from it at like 150KB/sec with FTP, which is absolutely unacceptable. A couple hours for a TV episode? No way I can deal with that. Any thoughts on how I can improve speeds?
I was thinking of creating my own torrents and transferring it that way, but I don't know if that will do anything.
I'm thinking there isn't any solution to this - that I'll just need to find another host that has good speeds with US. But I figured I'd ask the experts here before I got all frazzled, as I do like Shinjiru for everything else (they had me up and running in 12 hours, and like I said down/up in uTorrent are great).
