I've had good experiences with 1fichier as a downloader.
I don't mind paying a little for a service each month but probably the biggest concern for me is reliability;
I don't want to be re-upping all the time. Do you think that uploads are deleted with about the same frequency from one host to the next?
And does anyone have some useful links on how to protect your uploads i.e. make them less likely to be recognized by hosts as DMCA violations?
All I can think of is using crafty filenames but I've heard they use algorithms that can detect signatures in warez.
Maybe some encryption would help?
The only experience I've had as an uploader was here and another certain (he heeee) site and that was not extensive compared to you guys/gals.
I really didn't take the time to educate myself.
