I second the suggestion for the feature of resumable downloads… People with really crappy internet connection (like me) have a really hard time completing certain downloads, so it’ll be really helpful if we can resume failed/interrupted downloads.

[…] DivShare is growing at an almost alarming pace, and they have more than 137,000 registered users uploading 12,000 new files each day. There are over 2 million files being hosted on their servers, and I can only imagine what their bandwidth costs are like! Their Alexa graph shows no sign of them slowing down anytime soon: […]

Jeremy: sorry, I thought I remembered MF having a URL upload service. RS and MU certainly do. And so does filefactory.
Of course, these are only one-way services (i.e., you can load a remote file onto their servers).
Divshare don’t have a URL upload service (yet!). I suppose you could try some kind of FTP site-to-site transfer if you are a Premium divshare member.

Thanks JonD - my particular interest was in “URL uploading” (copying files directly over from one file host to another without re-uploading). I must be being very thick because I still don’t see how one accomplishes that with Mediafire. For example say I had a folder of files on Mediafire and wanted to copy whole folder of files directly over to divShare - could that be done?

As these comments are in divShares blog - I would just like to say that I still think divShare has the most useful features, so will be best file host once speed and reliability issues are sorted!

Jeremy: Mediafire are very good. Apparently, they’ll shortly be offering a Premium service with bigger uploads and an upload manager
RS and megaupload also allow remote file fetching from other sites.

tino - I didn’t realise before that you said in an earlier post that some file hosts do give the ability to copy files directly over to other file hosts. Any chance you could elaborate - either here or perhaps you could e-mail me at jeremyparkin@orange.fr”

Is there any way to close my account. Is it just an email to support?
