>>584955 You're obviously entitled to your opinions, and I'll admit most of my experience with these hosts is limited to MU, rapidshare, and gigeshare/ However, I find that MU's wait times, on the whole, are not really any worse than RS, for example.
Take a video file just under 300mb, for example. On MU you'd have that uploaded as one file, which you'd get all at once. My experience has been that you can usually download two large files of that size before the download limit kicks in, at which point you're going to wait about 300+ minutes.
RS, on the other hand, would have to have that same file divided into a three-piece .rar. RS's delay on a 99mb file I've found can be anywhere between 60 and 180 minutes. To get the equivalent (600mb), you're looking at that 60-180 minute wait 5 times. That's also assuming you're sitting around and getting the next download as soon as your time's up.
However, while MU will let you do two large files before the wait kicks in, using it for several small files, while having no wait between each file, will kick in after 100mb or so (though the waiting period at this point seems to be based on how much you've downloaded). What's better to use should really be determined by file size, and yeah, in your case, MU's probably not the best choice. But I just thought I'd point out that the wait times for downloading things on MU is really no worse than some others.
