Trying to d/l from oron is a nightmare at the best of times but for the last 3 to 4 weeks its been impossable as all I get when i try is that there is XX hours XX mins and XX secs to next d/l slot and that time never changes. If I refresh the page the numbers changes randomly. I tried both as a free user and then registered a free account and it happends on both on them :sadomaso:

Yep, it's a pain in the ass. Most folks I know have given up on it.

I never thought of this as a coincedence myself. Some places just don't want to share files freely. Oron is one of those. As far as I am concerned they can stick a firecracker up their ass, (anybody got a lighter?).

Kevin, thanks for the thread. I think the basic idea at the moment is that if Oron wants to make it difficult to use their service, then those of us who use file hosting websites simply won't have anything to do with them.

Oron has never caused me any trouble. When I first click to download as a free user, it makes me wait 60 seconds. After downloading I have to wait from a couple of minutes to a couple of hours before downloading again depending on the size of the file I just downloaded.

its impossible download larger files (>1gb) you need to be premium user... also the wait time is the longest and download speed average at best. My experiences.

Oron is terrible. Speed is very slow, and the wait time between downloads is extremely long. I stay away from it now.
