newjughead Posted May 25, 2014 Report Share Posted May 25, 2014 I know that free sites like mega.co, tustfiles and company are preferred, but does anyone think that we sites like embedupload and multiupload should be used more? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnFlower Posted May 25, 2014 Report Share Posted May 25, 2014 All filehosts are shit. Use torrents. Tapatalk is great, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChoeyXD Posted May 25, 2014 Report Share Posted May 25, 2014 http://www.multiup.org/en/upload http://jheberg.net/ Those two are pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nintendon't Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 All filehosts are shit. Use torrents. That's even worse than file hosts. You're pretty much putting yourself out there in the open to companies like Funimation and you end up wasting bandwidth uploading to other people downloading the torrent plus you have to deal with silly share ratio bullshit if you use a private tracker. IRC is the correct answer. Faster speeds than both file hosts/torrents, no limits, and more available content. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IRC is the correct answer. Faster speeds than both file hosts/torrents, no limits, and more available content.Actually, I was working off the assumption that most users are cheap idiots who have no clue how to properly host a (x)dcc bot. I would not recommend hosting a (x)dcc bot on a home connection anyway, unless you want to end up with something like Sakura's NukuServ|Archive (of which all content is available through torrents). (x)dcc bots are great if done right, but will not beat torrents in terms of content or speed. For the record, I have uploaded FUNimation torrents under this username. I only upload to peers that have the correct encryption settings and do not use DHT. I have not recieved any removal requests/warnings/anything from my ISP or my server provider. Edit: Maybe you should disregard the above. I missed the 'ratio bullshit' comment... I am now assuming you are one of the many leechers that seem to hang around this forum.

HeavenlyClassic Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 (edited) why?all they do is upload to multiple filehostsand the majority of them give terrible speeds(atleast to me)but to each their own.

Ranma-kun Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 Mediafire is the best host http://mediafire.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsukumo Yuma Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 (edited) I would say Media Fire and Filecloud.ioAlso if you are uploading MP4 files, http://www.mp4upload.com/ is a good place, because you can upload as many files as you want, no premium required.

Tsu.Ku.Yo.Mi Posted May 27, 2014 Report Share Posted May 27, 2014 Torrents is shit unless you have a good seedbox and want to waste hundreds of dollars per month on that seedbox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koby Posted May 27, 2014 Report Share Posted May 27, 2014 Torrents is shit unless you have a good seedbox and want to waste hundreds of dollars per month on that seedboxWut... A decent seedbox is only ~$10 a month. That's cheaper than a lot of file host premiums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

† LimitLess Posted May 27, 2014 Report Share Posted May 27, 2014 I don't like torrents a lot, but I do download sometimes. Mediafire is a good filehost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moodkiller Posted May 27, 2014 Report Share Posted May 27, 2014 I would say Media Fire and Filecloud.io Do you know what the (if any) expiry times are on files on these hosts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeathTheKid Posted May 27, 2014 Report Share Posted May 27, 2014 I would say Media Fire and Filecloud.ioDo you know what the (if any) expiry times are on files on these hosts?Not sure about mefiafire but I thought filecloud deleted anything over 200mb after a week of it not downloading. It used to be good for free users both downloaded and uploaders but now its not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It used to be good for free users both downloaded and uploaders but now its not. Did a little research about filecloud.io - Max file size is 2GB, 1000GB (1TB) of storage for free users, and files over 300MB expire 30 days after the last download. http://filecloud.io/misc-faqs.html Mediafire - 10GB storage for free users, and a limit of 200MB per file, though files do not get deleted if they are not downloaded but rather if you dont use your account. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaFire#Features Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koby Posted May 27, 2014 Report Share Posted May 27, 2014 Around the time MegaUpload got hit, MediaFire panicked and banned a lot of accounts and continued to actively wipe their servers of any copyrighted material. They even announced they offered their entire database to the FBI and would report users to them who showed signs of continual copyright infringing videos. I don't have a clue if they still practice this or not; but for a long time Kametsu had banned the use of their service. I don't keep up with the happenings of file hosts though anymore because file hosts are completely useless with all the other more reliable options out there. MediaFire was practically useless for anything except your own legal stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranma-kun Posted May 27, 2014 Report Share Posted May 27, 2014 They laid off quickly because they started losing so many customers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They probably lost a lot of users due to that... Im leaning towards filecloud.io for future uploads, them seem to offer a lot for free users.

O0O Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 Mediafire does give good speed but filecloud and firedrive are also excellent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
