03.12.12 | 7/8 as far as album artwork goes. I'd really like that fraction to transfer to my Mediafire download success rate. |

03.12.12 | Yeah, i spent an hour or two trying to get some trophy scars but i just ended up downloading straight off youtube. |

03.12.12 | It fucking blows. Mediafire used to be godly but now almost everything is being removed from it. |
ShadowRemains
03.12.12 | except that I still find stuff there...people just need to be a little less obvious in terms of what they name their files and it shouldn't be that hard to avoid getting shit removed |
Sirob
03.12.12 | im finding less and less every day. its so sad |

03.12.12 | Yeah but most of the stuff is gone. |

03.12.12 | Filestube. Band album mediafire. Problem solved. |
MMX
03.12.12 | filestube man, it takes me no more than 5 minutes to find any album I'm looking for
but it is sad, I bet it wont be much longer till the site is dead |

I need all of this within the next twenty minutes or my night may actually contain sleep. Damn it all Mediafire. |

03.12.12 | I only have two albums to lose sleep to. Not okay. |

03.12.12 | We will never sleep, 'cause sleep is for the weak

03.12.12 | there still hasnt been one time where i couldnt get what i wanted but its definitely getting a lot harder to find some things. |
Ending
03.12.12 | "there will be other sites once everything blows over."
I'm sure. But Mediafire was just so convenient. Adding 'site:mediafire.com' to any search ever and then just clicking a single link to begin a download was the best. Look at me, typing in the past tense already. |
Ending
03.12.12 | "except that I still find stuff there...people just need to be a little less obvious in terms of what they name their files and it shouldn't be that hard to avoid getting shit removed"
Agree so hard. I just got Simple Math a few weeks ago and the name just had an absence of vowels. It doesn't seem that hard, but some people don't want to "take the risk" which I suppose is understandable. |

03.12.12 | Quoting the longest comment on a list two comments in a row looks really damn ugly. |

03.12.12 | It is getting really bad I spent a few hours trying to find Revolver by The Beatles but eventually found one link and can not find any of the Yes albums I am looking for at the moment. |

There already are luckily. |
Funeralopolis
03.12.12 | what are some other sites to use? Every link I have used from filestube has been dead basically. |

Yeah I was trying to get Animals by Pink Floyd (noticed I didn't have it the other day) and after a few pages just gave up (lazy). |

03.12.12 | NO YES? |
Shuyin
03.12.12 | it takes more time to find stuff, plus try to use filestube
|

03.12.12 | protip: go to the end of the search results with site:mediafire.com and click the thing that says something about omitted results |
Ending
03.12.12 | "it takes more time to find stuff, plus try to use filestube"
Trying out FilesTube right now. And I know it takes more time, but coming off of a ton of homework and mourning the glory days of Mediafire just took their toll on me is all. Usually I'm relentless in my vicious pursuit of finding ways to acquire unpaid for music. |
Shuyin
03.12.12 | it kinda kills the willingness to dl music but
we need to fight the system! |
Acanthus
03.12.12 | Most Russian sites are still active, such as i.folder and the like. Rapidshare is still kicking, as are select 4shared links.
At the very end of the day there are always torrents as well. |
MMX
03.12.12 | Fuck torrents |
Acanthus
03.12.12 | Well if you really want to pirate music but don't want torrents you're in a rather unique position I suppose. |
MMX
03.12.12 | I only need torrents for games, movies, tv shows and other files that run over a gig
When the average album is less than 150mb, I have no use for torrents |
Acanthus
03.12.12 | It depends on what it is for me, sometimes it has what I need others I don't really care. |
Ending
03.12.12 | SadTissues, thank you very much. Time for me to hit the hay with a cup of coffee and solace in knowing that all of the homework I was supposed to do tonight isn't getting touched. |
SadTissues
03.12.12 | My pleasure, I used to depend on mediafire but now I've learned to branch off to other sites as well. But I'm glad I could assist in your procrastination! |

OysterizerInsomniac
03.12.12 | all the stuff filestube has that links to mediafire doesn't work unless you actually copy and paste the url into your browser rather than clicking on the download link. There's usually a few seperate uploads of the same thing on mediafire, not all of them get deleted, just the most popular one from what I've seen. |
SadTissues
03.12.12 | I actually use tribler now for torrents. It's all the rave these days. It's basically an application for your computer that is constantly finding new torrents and such. Quite excellent actually. Basically a beefed up newer version of utorrent. |

03.12.12 | im dl'ing some albums from mediafire atm, mostly unknown bands.
found whole discographies there so far, but i keep getting that error message in 2 of them. sucks |
sifFlammable
03.12.12 | had 1/20 success rate dling burial-kindred
the imporant point is that there there was a success rate |
North0House2
03.12.12 | I have a 100% success rate because the albums I look for are so obscure and random that nobody even knows they were ever uploaded, nor does anyone even really look for them. |
Acanthus
03.12.12 | If I want it, I normally can find it; almost everyone should be able to do so though age of the album
should be taken into account, as well as the popularity of said album. |
Bloodhail
03.12.12 | for dead links in filestube try manually copy pasting the mediafire url instead of following the link. mediafire is finding ways to mess up the direct links between filestube and mediafire. you'll find a lot of the links aren't really broken. |
Funeralopolis
03.12.12 | Omg thank you so much the mediafire thing worked! I need to go on a downloading spree and get stuff while I can. |
BassDemon333
03.12.12 | I hate that shit is being taken off mediafire so much lately I've been looking for Cannibal Corpse's Kill album cause I need to dl it again and can't find the damn thing cause every link for mediafire for it is broken |
Funeralopolis
03.12.12 | I have been freaking out over this, I need to download every album I can think of before it is too late. |
MoosechriS
03.12.12 | as much as this blows and the censorship parade is getting ridiculous, on the plus side it might mean that more people boycott the major labels and start buying underground artists physical releases instead of dowloading them. |
insomniac15
03.12.12 | for the more popular music I search the torrents first. If not I usually find it through free downloading sites. However, lately the downloads on mediafire are lagging and I wait an hour for something. Still, it's worth it. |
Ending
03.12.12 | What the internet censorship supporters need to understand is that piracy and file sharing aren't exactly the same thing, and therefore can't be dealt with in the same way. |

03.12.12 | heaven forbid you actually pay for your music. fucking bands, who the hell do they think they are, wanting money for their hard work. |

that or browsing older blogs |

i'm all for paying for music but the fact is that i'm not in a financial situation to be able to buy every album that im curious to hear. |
defjaw83
03.12.12 | yea you got to use filestube guys, pretty easy to find a working link that way |
Funeralopolis
03.12.12 | Exactly I can't afford albums it is as simple as that I can barley afford groceries. |
Shuyin
03.12.12 | 'filestube basically solves all problems'
but note that theyr links to mediafire allways have this error message, but i think theres a way around it |
Funeralopolis
03.12.12 | @Shuyin: you can get around it, when you click the link and get to the middle page there will be a spot that says direct link, manually copy and paste that link into the url and you can get to the file. |
Shuyin
03.12.12 | yea, so far we should be just fine
if all else fails try to find a nice blog, they usually upload the albums with coded names and provide links. theres some really awsome music blogs out there |
Ending
03.12.12 | I usually buy what I can. Unfortunately being young and without a very hefty income... that amounts to roughly one album a week. You know, if I don't plan on saving or spending money on something else.
Yeah I'm just a greedy bastard. |
