How Much Does Mediafire Suck?

So I’ve gotten feedback that the downloads work more or less okay…but that the site has lots of popups and is generally annoying to work with. Is that other folks’ experience as well? And how irritating is it overall?

I’m wondering if I need to upgrade to a pay account, which I think will eliminate that nonsense…but I’d like a little more feedback before I do that, if possible.

  1. Okay, looking back, I had a lot of screens open. I think there may have been a couple of pop-ups that I got rid of as part of a general screen clean-up, when I was getting rid of windows I didn't need.

    But the pop-ups never got in the way of what I had to do, and usually if there's a computer problem I'll run into it.

    So, based on the first 2 downloads, don't change on my account.

  2. mediafire is one of the better free filesharing sites. As long as the file is under 100 mb, there's no download limit, nor is there any wait time to begin the download.

  3. I still say it sucks…just from the pop-ups and unwanted screens/ads point-of-view. The downloads themselves worked fine.

    Listening to some weird groaning and droning as we speak.

  4. On a side note, of the new playlist I really like cuts 1-5 and 11, am adjusting to the demands of the other material.

    I think this is the first time I've enjoyed blues/gospel/whatever, as opposed to soul. A couple of the songs here really jolted me: "Move Upstairs" and "I Know I Got Religion." Also, the Wells-Gaye number is, how does one put this, the first Motown I've heard in 20 years that I hadn't heard before.

    Don;t you run into them at the Wash Post site? I got used to the things back in the years when I read more news stories.

  6. Bless your heart, Tom. I'm glad you like some of it anyway. I may look to see if I can fine you some other motown you haven't heard for one of the upcoming ones….

    Eric, I think I may stick with it for now. Are you downloading from a PC? I think Macs screen some of it out…
