it depends on your connection and the tracker you're using.
If you are using "Premium Account" you also have fast Speeds!

Reason: Fake upload
Do NOT cheat. This involves; ghost leeching, spoofing and/or use of a modified client in anyway. If you, or anyone on your IP/server is found to be cheating then ALL users on that IP will be disabled.
Yeah but the only reason I haven't shelled out for a premium account is simply because I don't wanna futz with paypal. I'd rather torrent that deal with them.
Depending on how good routing to your country is, you may have to use MSD to hit those.Originally Posted by system28

Wow that's a huge change for RS! I guess they think they can make more money out of that business plan than what they do now.
Frankly I do not see the point behind such changes. I hardly use web hosts, to me they are too much trouble to go through.
I guess that only time will tell what will happen, but one thing is for sure: someone will take RS's place and RS will never get back to be what it used to be.
rapidshare has already lost a lot of popularity with their limits, seems like the balance has shifted more towards hotfile/fileserve & co.
the first trick is increasing the minimum package as afaikAn adjustment has also been made to our price structure. Following the introduction of RapidPro in July, we took three months to observe and evaluate the response of our users. The result: the prepaid model with the purchase of Rapids was overwhelmingly well received. However, many customers have expressed the wish that, when they purchase RapidPro, they should have a larger amount of disc space and traffic available to them than is the case at the moment. We are now making this wish come true: From this point on, every RapidPro user will receive five times the amount of disc space and traffic, i.e. 50 GB of storage and 150 GB of traffic every 30 days.
The costs are of course changing accordingly: 30 days of RapidPro now cost 495 Rapids. The smallest Rapid Package has 500 Rapids and costs 5.99 Euros. In addition, packages with 1,000, 2,000, 6,000 and 20,000 Rapids are available. Whoever activates RapidPro directly for 12 months receives the 12 months at the special price of 5,499 Rapids and is given VIP status. VIP customers will be favoured in future beta tests and receive invitation codes for RapidContact. As before, users can purchase additional traffic quotas on top of this, in 100 GB slices. 100 GB are charged per 280 Rapids.
previous minimum was 4,99€ for 400 rapids (~140GB per month max)
now: 5,99€ for 500 rapids (150GB per month max)
another trick may be here if thats the minimum amount, as previous was 5 GB (14 rapids):
also, the waiting becomes waiting while playing revenue-making gamesusers can purchase additional traffic quotas on top of this, in 100 GB slices. 100 GB are charged per 280 Rapids.

I sympathize with that view, but if everyone dropped Rapidshare right now and began using Mediafire, MF would eventually have to impose limitations, either out of greed or simply because of the extremely high load.why don't you use mediafire and use all that crap like RS?
"I just remembered something that happened a long time ago."
Rapidshare's biggest mistake was getting rid of incentives for uploaders. Nobody appears to be uploading new material to rapidshare and eventually all the old material will disappear as accounts expire. Without new material to download, there's really no reason to have an account there. They also keep changing their pricing model constantly. Last month a basic pro account cost 99 rapids. Next month that will cost 495. The download limit is higher, but without any new content it's not of much use, and certainly not worth the extra cost. I know they were under pressure from various anti-p2p organizations, but it's still hard to believe that they'd shoot themselves in the foot the way they have. I'll keep using my account until my rapids expire, but once they're gone I have no intention of renewing unless they make some drastic positive changes.
I hate all this new changes, liked it better with the old style.
care to elaborate?
