I have been on a premium a/c for around 6 months now. So can't comment about the free download but haven't had any such issue recently.

50mb? For me 35mb files were a pain. Stupid rapidshare used to go off at 95%. Had to download like 275 30mb files. Did that in 21 days. :|

This is due to Cable Cut. Me getting less speeds and download fails after sometime if the file is large ;)

Hmm? Cable cut? I downloaded like 2 years back. It used to go off at 95% or around that.

You guys are right!, I am also getting very slow speed. Current Download Speed is 6 KBPS (Downloading any Rapidshare File). Earlier I use to get 49 KBps Speed through My BSNL 750 Unlimited plan. :|

I'm a premium user as well but no such issue. The speed has gone down a bit but I suppose that's due to the cable cut issue. But no such issue as you mentioned.

Also when you say "skipping" what exactly do you mean? Does it give an error message?

Dear, no no, i am not getting any error message. and what exactly i meant by skipping is, while downloading the files, after downloading a few KB's or even MB's the downloading just dropping off. as i am using FIREFOX, if any error happening while download, i will get that RETRY option, but in this case, when it dropping, i am not even able to get that RETRY button too.

ho hoo

Who's dear?:D

I am also getting awful download speeds these days even though I have a premium Rapidshare account. It's definately due to the cable cut.

It's due to that undersea fiber cable cut. It's repurcusions have been felt at RS pretty badly.
My 60 MB PES 2009 patch took 4 days to download on RS. :|

Use Internet Download Manager. It's probably the best download manager out there to sync with RS downloads. I have been using it for a long time now & it hasn't let me down yet. Try it once.

For once, either buy legal stuff or go with a large pizza and an 8GB pendrive to your friend's house. :p

^^haha.

I always preferred rapidshare over torrents. Have been using rapidshare for the past 1yr and am totally satisfied as I need not depend on 100 people sharing a file on torrents. Thanks to the content that I normally try to find, I always find it on rapidshare.

the cable cut has made me suffer a lot, now i am doing more seeding work than downloading things. Indian Peers give me abt 10 kbps while all my european and american give 3-4 kbps and that has made me a serious seeder*s269.photobucket.com/albums/jj44/visio159/Unismilies/52.png
