Using Rapidshare or $$$$$$$$$$ to view porn = stealing.
Those are all copyrighted movies that are being viewed and shared illegally.

Rapidshare is worth it. My 1 year membership was up last month but I had enough points to extend my account for another 6 months for free.

I got a MU account. Def worth it if you are a frequent uploader of a RS/MU type of forum. RS is more annoying, but it's easier to get premium. MU is much more preferable, but it takes over 10k downloads to get one month worth of premium. IMO, Mediafire is the best. But you gotta pay to get the most out of everything.

Mediafire,zshare and zippyshare are the best for mp3's. Rapidshare and $$$$$$$$$$ have started to crack down on illegal content.

For example instead of naming a file
Hells.Kitchen.US.S05E11.WS.PDTV.XviD-FQM.part2.rar
you would name it hkus.s05e11
not that tv shows get taken down all that much..

Yeah, mediashare has good speeds. I sometimes get 1mb/s downloads from $$$$$$$$$$ without a account. Zippyshare is also good because you get a preview like zshare but you don't have to wait to download files.

And uhmmm, I have 0 reward points from MU, but I had at least 20+ people download my files under 100mb. Do you have to be premium to get them?
