I’m always interested in experimenting with new hosts for various shares. when i read your
interesting list, my purpose was solely to verify. these hosts come and go.
so if an exceptionally fast host sticks around and maintains what it’s
initially recognized for, it’s news to me.

in my example, i simply put several .lit files in a rar. these files are
meant to be read with Microsoft Reader.

personally, i like to revisit some of the winners. as you know, every so
often, the stars burn out and new ones come to play. apparently, this is
primarily decided by bandwidth cost. seems like only Rapidshare (be it .de
or .com) has maintained it’s longevity and speeds. for most people, RS
remains the golden chalice. I think mediafire and divshare are fast on it’s
tail. time will tell.

experimenting with your list from 12/06, I uploaded a 5.99 MB file – classics.rar

Results:

something wrong with fileho. first noticed significantly slower UL, then
link provided wasn’t even for my file. Are their days numbered?

(fast UL & DL. enough said.)

sharedzilla is no more.

(fast UL. fast DL, but for the timer. a bit spammy)

# host added prefix to file, so when DL, filename is [myfile]classics.rar.
may be an issue if password-protecting files.

**I’ve had only success with mihd. files deleted depend on content and the
host’s share policy (see below)
I’d consider giving them another shot. of course, this is my opinion, I
could be wrong.

Great news we decided to allow uploads up to 2GB (yes thats whooping 2
gigabytes per file)! Also we are extending the file expiry for smaller
files! files are deleted depending on their filesize:

* 0 to 10MB – 90 Days after last download
* 10 to 20MB – 70 Days after last download
* 20 to 50MB – 60 Days after last download
* 50 to 100MB – 45 Days after last download
* 100 to 200MB – 30 Days after last download
* 200 to 500MB – 14 Days after last download
* 500 to 1000MB – 3 Days after last download
* 1000MB+ – 1 Day after last download

This post is an update to my prior released article about different one-click filehosters. I have compared some of the best (and free) hosters and recently got an e-mail by someone called kanji. He told me that he used my list to conduct further studies. His results can be read above!
