Why the switch to hotfile?

[andd3k]

looks like a lot more people are using hotfile more and rapidshare less

[Rollyco]

this is probably why: http://hotfile.com/affiliate.html

or maybe this http://www.akiba-online.com/forum/sh...ad.php?t=97715

but that's just my personal reason; i can't speak for the others

How would hotfile solve the issues with link stealers?

Rollyco - interesting. I can see now why people have switched though not so good considering I just paid for a 6 month rapidshare account. Thankfully it's still used - not as much as before but still good enough for now

because it's more "difficult" to mirror from, and because of this:

Files larger than 100 MB do not qualify for our Rewards Program.

so MU is out of the game, and in case i can split in bigger size, voiding RS too
what remains, Ugotfile? bah! is that a file hoster?

it's working for me.

anyways, HF is good for me; i would never use a bad host, stealers or not
i go with full bandwith and i've -almost- never experienced the troubles that many people talk about, so it's probably something country related.. dunno

could it be that people are finaly catching on to the fact that rapidshit is called that for a reason.

The host that sucks the most is the one you don't subscribe to!

I don't sub to any host . I get my account FREE from all the points I get from people d/ling my files

Right there with ya RickyDicky, might have to fork over more $ for a hotfile account if more people start using it.

Yes yes. I'm starting to realize that I may not have a lot of choice in the matter

EDIT - got a 6 month account :P
