About Rapidshare...

I've gotten several comments from people asking me to switch to rapidshare because it's quicker (which is understandable)...the reason why I initially went with megaupload was because I've been having trouble uploading things to rapidshare for a long time, even though that's what I would have preferred to go with initially (because less people seem to have problems with it, including myself). I've tried screwing with it again and I think it's working for good now and I'm going to switch to rapidshare permanently if at all possible. Future posts should be on rapidshare instead...

Though I really do appreciate the suggestions...If there's anything else you think I should be doing differently then let me know!

For what it's worth, I do much better with Megaupload than Rapidshare--in fact I mostly can't use Rapidshare at all, nor can many people I know. So I hope you won't switch.... and thanks for all that great music (Poesia Sonara! Amazing!).

First of all, thanks for sharing such excellent music. I would tend to agree on the "anything but rapidshare" sentiment. It seems like rapishare is increasingly a pain to use.

I would use Rapidshare if I were you. Even when I didn't have a premium account at Rapidshare, downloading is not nearly as difficult as many people are saying it is. Sure, you may have to wait 25 to 76 minutes to download a file, but once the time has passed, you can download the file with little to no problems.

However, Rapidshare downloads have been slow for me today. Rapidshare downloads may be slower than usual from now until sometime in March, since their web site says they are having to manage a high load, and that the updates won't be done until March sometime.

I also like Megaupload. Free users of Megaupload can download several files at a time, using a download manager/accelerator, but Megaupload works best with IE instead of Firefox. Honestly, I am not a fan of IE, but it does work easier with Megaupload.

i agree, rapidshare sucks and there are many people who can't even use rapidshare at all. Rapidshare also provides ways for assholes to delete your links quicker.

I really can't stand those geeks who complain all day about how all blogs should use rapidshare. In general, I really can't stand all those people who complain about everything...they complain about the links, they complain about quality, they complain about art work and so on. They don't contribute anything but complaints.

Stick with megaupload or another good link provider. Avoid rapidshare..it's only going to complicate things for you and then sooner or later there is going to be some "rapidshare troll" who will start deleting your links.

Take it from me, I once had a blog and when I switched to rapidshare all of a sudden the links were getting deleted by some jerk and it just got too complicated so i quit.

make it easy on yourself. You are doing great with what you have. You have tons of fans of your blog who are not complaining, don't change a winning formula just because like 3 people are complaining about rapidshare...because once you satisfy this request from them they will start complain about something else.

don't mess with your great winning formula.

Direct Waves is awesome and perfect, just the way it is.

Whoooh...WOW!!!! That was weird! I must have fainted. That hasn't happened in a long time.

Wonder why? Hmm. I was at my keyboard...just surfing the net...

Oh, yeah, I was at Mutant Sounds (God, that guy is amazing)...and, then...I started clicking some of the other links.......

AND, BAM!!! This Direct Waves Blog. Yeah, that's it!

Or, was it a dream? Could it be? I mean, another blog sharing impossible to find tunes by NWWL luminaries: Dubuffet, DNA, TransMusuq, Mate and Vallancien!!!!???? Nah, it couldn't be...

Now, what is on the screen? Oh my God...it is truuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu........................
