    Question Which file host for PS3 backups?

    Hi all,

    I have a premium FS account. Lately I've been getting internal 500 errors on certain files. Nerve wrecking when you've downloaded 20gigs for a single game and 1-2 rar pieces won't download..

    I want to get a premium account from somewhere else.. I guess FileSonic is much better.. or is it? Would like to know your opinions...

    Thanks,
    h

    i honestly would say use megaupload. i have found that most people find them easier to use for multi links with j downloader. you will get more downloads that way

    Exhibit this in the courtroom.....
    Go on do it I dare you!!

    u might try alldebrid. I think it's about four bucks per month and gives u premium for about 77 different upload services including megaupload, filesonic, fileserve, etc., and they give u a free two-day trial to see if u like it.

    i like filesonic because you can upload 5 gig at a time and megaupload is good also. i can't stand fileserve

    wait...r u trying to upload files or download? if downloading, alldebrid is the way to go; if uploading, I think some upload services offer cash for uploading enough content which is y some r used far more than others. fileserve and filesonic may be the two best as they seem to be the most common among uploaders.

    @hanlar,

    I reckon mediafire is possibly the best. Followed by megaupload. Mediafire has some nice d/l speeds and allows multiple connections (using jdownloader anyway). I get 2.5 MB/s d/l on my connection and theres no captcha. I like the sites without captcha as I can just queue up the links and leave it until I get all the files. Following these 2, it would probably be fileserve.

    Megaupload sucks because you can't even earn points to pay for your premium and without a premium your files go offline quick and not many uploaders are going to pay for premiums out of their own pocket just to serve files to you.

    If you can't download a certain file from someone, its not really an issue with the filehost. They might not have a premium account and just so happens before you got the game downloaded their files started being removed.

    If uploaders don't pay for premiums themselves, their files get removed after a short duration.

    For uploaders you also have to look at the tools, API and setup they give you. If its a hassle to deal with then its not worth using.

    As I've mentioned before out of the tons of filehosts I have used, Fileserve and Filesonic are two of the best (Filesonic not so much anymore since they changed their API for the worse now) I don't collect cash for any of my uploads, I just happen to like what they offer in tools, API and ease of use and have always been reliable 100%.

    I don't believe in collecting money for uploaded games since I work in the industry actually making these games.

    it depends who you download files from.
    usually you're safe just having a megaupload account (which you can get from uploading your own stuff) and looking for filekeen links when it's not available.
