Mega

[deviltry]

Today's big internet thing is the reopening of MegaUpload (if you missed the drama: http://arstechnica.com/series/series-megaupload/ ), named just Mega: https://mega.co.nz/

Pros: Mega goes with times and after checking HDD prices they know that storage is cheap and is offering 50 gB free and 500 gB for 10 dollars a month, as opposed to DropBox who still buys floppies and offers a fraction of that.

Cons: Well really. A company involved in piracy very deep walks away and spits in MPAA, FBI, BLABLA faces... Oh they are on some serious shitlists and sooner or later, in my opinion, users will lose their files... Again.

Also Mega isn't offering a normal program to upload files, just that html5 web app fad...

How about you? You're trusting mr dot kom with your files?

I won't be using it but I did say he was going to be starting up again shortly.

Although I didn't think he'd be back up and running until March so I was a bit off in that prediction.

Thing is, how could they have even locked down MegaUpload in the first place, if SOPA wasn't even enacted yet?

Looking at the website..... doesn't look like there's videos on there anymore.....I'm quite uninterested.
