Re: megaupload taken down ?

For future use I'd pick Rapidshare seeing as they already have dealt with a legal battle like this and came out on top.

Holy fuck, didn't know it was Kim Schmitz. Such a crazy guy with his German accent :D. Liked his motto: "[I]Lieber 10 Jahre[/I] wie ein König leben, als 50 Jahre wie ein Esel" (I prefer living 10 years like a king instead of 50 years like a fool).

Re: megaupload taken down ?

Fuck me FileFactory are only allowing premium users to upload at the moment. Mediafire has crashed on me twice. And don't get me fucking started on bulk up-loaders and upload speeds:x

I'm surprised they can destroy them as some of the content is the property of the unloader.

Re: megaupload taken down ?

I've fucking had it with all of them Mixcloud 5 upload failures, mediafire 3 upload failures. Gigasize deleted my file and File Factory isn't allowing non premium members to upload at the moment. They can all get fucked I've had enough.

#1590023Post 141 of 180

Re: megaupload taken down ?

If you are having all those failures maybe you have a connection problem. ?? Just a suggestion. I've been uploading steadily to mediafire without any problems .

#1590216Post 142 of 180

Re: megaupload taken down ?

Looks like FileFactory it is then. I will give it a few weeks and if their service is good I will get a premium account. I should be picking up some exclusive new sets soon that most of you lot will want.

Dropbox is the shit or new to the scene "Google Drive" should be just fine once it hits the floor.

Re: megaupload > LMFAO

it's something like sopa / pipa for us here in europe, loosely compared. it's called anti-counterfeiting trade agreement.

the bad part about is that it was worked out and discussed secretly and with participation of the music and movie industries. not the typical scenario you'd like your laws to originate from...

Re: megaupload > LMFAO

Rapidshare starting to cash in on the lack of competition now :( Their free service is crap now.

#1592201Post 154 of 180

Re: megaupload > LMFAO

I've moved over to file factory myself, cheep as chips and I can bulk upload

Re: megaupload > LMFAO

Looks like soundcloud are cracking down on copyright infringment. I'm hearing more and more storys of sets being deleted all the time

[QUOTE=chunky;1036292]Looks like soundcloud are cracking down on copyright infringment. I'm hearing more and more storys of sets being deleted all the time[/QUOTE]

sets are scanned for copyrighted tunes during upload on soundcloud

#1609597Post 157 of 180

Re: megaupload > LMFAO

Well technically it is illegal if you don't have permission from every artist on your mix to republish their work, so SoundCloud has to remove the music if they get a complaint. Sucks but that is the way it is.

Re: megaupload > LMFAO

[QUOTE=thebanned1;1036302]sets are scanned for copyrighted tunes during upload on soundcloud[/QUOTE]

It's always been like that, sets are not deleted, that's another story, that's a real copyright infringement and you receive a warning. If the scanning process finds a "protected" track they won't create the waveform but you still have the possibility to to appeal or simply change the track. No warnings.

I'm not saying it's not annoying but it's the labels's fault. And people who's going to play 128 files just to pretend they have all the promos.
