Rapidshare is one of the most frustrating websites to download large files off of, especially if they are broken into many pieces while Megaupload positively shines in comparison. So why do people keep using these two services when more generous file hosts like Mediafire exist?
I can only guess that it’s simply because so many other people are using them. In order to get free premium Rapidshare accounts, which let you download unlimited amounts of files, users upload their own files onto Rapidshare, hoping enough people download them in turn so that the uploaders can earn enough premium points to qualify for a free account.

I don’t understand people using rapidshare. They have limited download speed to 50k for free users. That’s very frustrating. I prefer http://www.badongo.com . No limits and super fast.

i say don’t even bother with megaupload, i found a couple times now they don’t care to update your rewards for 4-5 days sometimes and when they do start up again you may get 80 of the 500+ rewards points you earned. also megaupload does not reply to their support or any emails for that matter.
