Guys, i know mediafire works fine for you in the states, but unfortunatelly they have shut down the service for latin america, and i'm not sure how it works in europe.

That's why i would ask to prevent using it since the sets won't be available for everyone but the members from US and probably europe.

Thanks in advance

Re: [warning] mediafire problems outside US

The service doesn't work in Europe, too... :( So, pls, stop using Mediafire!

Re: [warning] mediafire problems outside US

actually, the utopia of getting free bandwidth seems to be fading out.

rapidshare has limited its features A LOT. megaupload did the same, or worst. now mediafire. sendspace never has free slots during the day.

what options do we have? wikiupload still looks decent imho. any other suggestions?

Re: [warning] mediafire problems outside US

funny, when I started with the Hernan links, everybody said "Mediafire is da bomb, use it use it use it". :lol:

I will try to avoid Mediafire in Future but please keep one thing in mind..there is not ONE upload service which is good for everybody so we can only try to pick the ones that are best for most users at the moment. All "free" services have one thing in common..they start big, fast and world wide and after they recruted enough fans, they restrict their service and highlight their subscription options where you pay $$$$ to use it.

Maybe we should write down our experiences to see which service works best for most people

Yousendit -> expires after 25 downloads = worthless for us because the link is dead faster than you can say "zero post leechers"

Mediafire -> Downloads work in Germany but uploads are painful because they fail all the time and the download speed has daramatically decreased lately

Sendspace -> never a download spot available in Germany no matter how often you try, worst upload service for my country

Megaupload -> slow but always working

What we also could do is to gather a list of most common upload services and start a poll which one is the best.....

Re: [warning] mediafire problems outside US

Hello, i´m from Mexico, and yes Mediafire is having problems for us here.

Megaupload -> never a slot open untill 4:00 AM till 9:00 AM

Sendspace -> from 12:00 AM till 10:00 AM (but doing the translation trick works sometimes)

Rapidshare -> always open

Re: [warning] mediafire problems outside US

Maybe they have just grown too big, too fast, I haven't had any problems with failed uploads and you can use download accelerators so it always downloads fast for me as well. No blank pages! I really do hope they work it out because it has actually worked better and more reliably than any other site for me. It's also really well set out and easy to use.

Re: [warning] mediafire problems outside US

Megaupload has limited the downloads. I keep getting the "bandwidth exceeded" sign and telling that i have to wait 1000 minutes.

[quote=DIDI;429004]Miraculously it still seems to be mostly working here. I can download those sets![/quote] That it?s because you are from Australia. mediafire have shot down the service for latin america!

Re: [warning] mediafire problems outside US

O.K let me do some research to see what i can come up with. I will stop Cattaneo sets upload for now untill i find another solution.

#781683Post 14 of 38

Re: [warning] mediafire problems outside US

This is a test, i found this free one unlimited storage space and bandwith give it a try and see how long we can go before we break this one.

I loaded a small set for this test i am at work and don't have many files here.

Re: [warning] mediafire problems outside US

Wikiupload.com , 5gb per file, amzing speed to upload any file.

[COLOR=White][I]"[FONT=Arial]In the beginning, after uploading your file we will keep it forever as long as it is accessed at least once by anyone in 30 days. As the site grows and resources are added we will be able to allow bigger file sizes than 5GB and longer time periods of 30 days, 45 days and so on. Please, help us fulfill this mission with our free file hosting service!"[/FONT][/I][/COLOR]

Re: [warning] mediafire problems outside US

anybody have problems with this one? It doesn't matter which one we choose we will bust it eventually but i would like to make them available to as many people that we can, i can't upload to 2 different servers it would be too much to handle. We need to choose one that works for most people.

Re: [warning] mediafire problems outside US

^^ Perhaps we should pull together during this time of crisis :lol: Seeing I will be downloading the Hernan 2005 stuff anyway , if you want to nominate a site I will reupload them. Leaves you free to look for more music :D

At least it would help James with his panic attack :lol: :lol: :lol:
