Suspected PayPal Hackers Seek Deal To Stay Out Of Prison
2 Men Arrested After Teen Was Run Over For His iPad
Share files online with DivShare
There are a lot of file sharing/hosting/storing sites out there. A lot. So one of my first predictable questions for DivShare co-founder David Altschul was of course, "Why use DivShare?" His answer: "DivShare sets itself apart from other free file hosts in a number of distinct ways, most notably in that we offer unlimited uploads and downloads, no waiting lines for files, auto image galleries, no popups or spam, an intuitive member dashboard, and all files stay online forever. Perhaps the biggest reason why bloggers and webmasters should choose DivShare over the other free file hosts is our co-branding options. Blogs can quickly and easily add their name, URL and logo to their hosted file pages via the dashboard. An example of co-branding can be seen here (warning: the link may also start a download - you can cancel it - but it's actually a pretty good song).I have to admit, everything David says sounds great (files stay online forever?!). But how does it actually perform? Well, the aforementioned song downloaded at an average rate of 550KBps, which isn't bad at all. I uploaded a 10MB video, and though there's no fancy Flash-Ajax upload timer, it took less than 2 minutes to complete. On an upstream-weak cable connection, that's pretty darn good. Since DivShare launched this month, only time will tell if the service remains as excellent as it is right now. Happy uploading!
P.S. You can't upload files larger than 100MB.

Hi,
I would like to seek help from you regarding downloading of files here in divShare. I'm just a newbie here and I don't know how can I download uploaded audio files in divShare. I can simply play them through the site but there is no Download link where I could download those songs.
Please help.
Thank you.

alexcher. A bit late perhaps for you, but the answer is to look for the "share" link. That gives you all you need.

divshare is great until something goes wrong. I have 24 gigs of photos up and something hiccuped on Divshare's end. 2 helpdesk tickets later, it remains unanswered and unresolved.
If you are a professional media person I would suggest finding a different site, divshare under the care of 3sixtyweb.com concerns me.
i don't think any professional media person can have their media down for 7+ days. Clients would not you use for the future. Please be aware I have been using divshare over a year now before the buy out technical support was fast and prompt. Now... not so much.

Well, I still prefer Mediafire. In common with DivShare: Unlimited uploads and downloads, no waiting lines for files, no popups or spam, a (simpler) dashboard, and all files stay online forever. Advantage over DivShare: Unlimited file size. Disadvantage: No co-branding, no auto album.

I had a horrible experience with the Divshare support. I took me 3 months to cancel an account. Very unprofessional.

I believe DivShare has no limit. Not sure if that's changed since you wrote the post or what.
That makes it incredibly useful combined with its unlimited timeframe. The speed isn't exactly rapidshare on a good day, but it's not half bad at all either.

I ever tried to upload a 6mb file but cannot success actually. For this kind of services I prefer Nakido, at least they are no limited on file size and download smooth after installed plugin.

OldCat:
I just went to the mediafire website, and on the front page it says "Up to 100MB per File".
So that leaves mediafire with no advantages over divshare...
