mediafire...sucks or not?!?

Post by ellaguru »

hi
recently some of you had uploaded albums and tracks on ths site.
it happens that the 90% of the cases i had to wait about 8 or 10 minutes before the written "download" appears.
is this normal?
for that reason i stopped, for now, listening works posted there, sorry.

Those sites lag because they want you to pay for faster service. Really sucks to wait 10 minutes for a 3 min song.

i noticed that rapidshare also makes you wait about 5mins...
megaupload is still ok, since 2 years you "just" wait 45 seconds...

it's just the conversion rate Ella. 1 north american second = 1.5 euro seconds.
just don't ask for the time at the airport....they'll gouge you.

mediafire is one of my favorite filehosts, have had less issues/annoyance there than anywhere else.

Maybe try clearing your cache or something?

yeah, mediafire is the best, shortest wait.

It looks like it's going to be slow, but it's actually deceiving.
