    Yes!

    Well, actually not all of it. jDownloader won't get you MB/s speeds or simultaneous downloads as a free user. But at least you can automate leeching and bypass between-files waiting times. Personally, I don't mind waiting.

    What u say is true, but the thing is that I don't even surpass the mb in downloads, so personally it's still a win-win situation i'd say :)

    I think "1c" means "once".

    Getting less popular stuff you can't find on trackers, and Warez-BB is a huge attic for those files.

    I find it quite hilarious that most people are complaining about the cost over all the other, real reasons you might not like RS. Especially seeing we're on a "small bandwidth" forum here, talking about a service with high speeds which doesn't demand you to upload (read as "cheat", for the people here).

    If you take it for a full year (and duh you should), it will cost you a measly 15 cents per day. On top of that, you get enough points from this purchase to get another month for free. If you count this extra free month in the total amount gained, it's only 13 cents a day. These 13 cents guarantee you to get amazing speeds, no upload required and usually faster releases than torrents, especially seeing as torrents need to get spread around a bit first so there are a decent amount of seeders. Almost sounds as if torrents have made everyone super spoiled, as if anything in life is free! Keep in mind that actually buying all the stuff you're getting from there, would cost you a fortune. And yes, I do realize some countries have uber expensive internet. But sadly I am one of them, and I find this hardly an argument.

    Bitch about anything you want, but I'd hardly call this expensive. If you can't even pay 13 cents a day. You can find that much lying on the street.

    I used to be a paying RS user, until they put up daily limits which, at the time, were quite low. This resulted in me having to get half on RS and torrent the other half. So it became pointless for me to spend money on RS and I just started looking around and found shu mod etc.

    IIRC, they've removed or made them a lot higher again, so it's not as much of a problem anymore. I would've gone back, but call it force of habit that I just continued using torrents.
    Thanks

    I won't find them every day.

    Not to mention the current exchange rate makes the price of a 1-year Premium account somewhat prohibitive for me.

    the thing is Sazzy that even if a huge archive of music similar to What , Waffles combined is available legally for 1$ a month , i can bet you more than half of the warez population wont even pay that 1$ .

    the people are used to downloading for free and has become a chronic habit for the people . the feeling of "eliteness" of downloading for free has overtaken the warez population and its next to impossible to remove this . The biggest irony of all is that people will buy the most expensive internet service with the highest speeds and spend on 1GBit/100 MBit seedboxes to leech warez content , but will not spend the 1$ to buy something legally .
    Thanks

    Crystal, that totally reminded me of this. It's sad, to say the least. But you're absolutely right. It's probably going to be even higher than that.


    @anon: Look harder!
    Also, I doubt the exchange rate is THAT terrible to completely avoid it. Are they really that high? Even 20-30 cents a day is still low and this is more than double.
    Thanks
