I like MediaFire because it doesn't make you wait a certain time or make you complete offers to show the download link.

So what about you guys?

Megaupload because it's ridiculously fast even for non-members.
All other sites are limited to around 100~300 KB/sec, while i can get up to over 6 MB/sec using Mega.

Time Limit - I assume you mean the wait time. I don't really care as long as the download speed makes up for it.
Number of Downloads Limit - I can bypass this with dynamic IP.
File Size - What? Most everything I download is split up into 100MB parts anyways.
Speed Limit - This matters the most to me.
Completion of Offers - I would not download from a site that makes you do this.
Inability to download multiple files at once - Don't really care, speed limit matters more.
CAPTCHA - Don't really care, I can do these easily.

"Time Limit" was a confusing term. Switched to "Wait Time".

I like Novaup. Max 1gb file uploads but really awesome speeds and parallel downloads

...But most people don't really use it so I would say Mediafire and Megaupload and one of the worst is Rapidshare (Curse that site).

I LOVE Megaupload for great services for even free users. Great speed as well (sometines hit 5MB/s! Average @ 1MB/s). RS is just putrid and for some reason still used.

Only downside to MU is that free users are restricted to under a Gigabyte per file download and single slot downloads. I'm thinking about purchasing a lifetime membership there since I use it so much!

I think we can all agree that rapidshare is shit.

But I quite like Megaupload, they're arguably the fairest of free downloads.
Personaly I hate the waiting times, I mean not how they make you wait 30 seconds before downloading, but how sites like rapidshit make you wait 20 minutes for a download slot then tell you there are no available slots. Bullshit.

    @Xdqwerty No you heard wrong, and don't believe till you experience yourself. Fallout 4 is one of my favorite games of all time. Yes it had issues early on, esp with older hardware like the xbox1, but it is awesome, esp now being 4k on Series S/X or PS5

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, Then i think people were talking about fallout 76
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    that one was buggy too
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea you right there, fallout 76 was a letdown, but it not that bad now, they have fixed slot of issues they had at launch. Biggest issue with Fallout 76 is its a pay to advance further type of game, which sucks
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, I may probably download fallout 3 or new vegas on my ps3
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:

    New Vegas is awesome, F3 was ok too.
