- scheper, on 10/12/2007, -3/+98I have a suspicion this site will not last long with its current setup.
- LegendarySock, on 10/12/2007, -1/+50On http://www.gigasize.com/page.php?p=how_it_works, it says:
"There is currently no limit on downloads! We love it when our accountant tells us that bandwidth charges are through the roof. In fact we love it so much that we give GigaPoints to users for every download of their files. We like to reward every user who plays a role in making GigaSize a success." - phbradley, on 10/12/2007, -0/+45hopefully it'll spark off a competition war like Gmail did with email. Sites like rapidshare REALLY need to clean up their act
- MikeJo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+38Is this bubble storage 2.0 ?
- dvddesign, on 10/12/2007, -1/+28Business plan for uploading business:
1. Have cavalier attitude towards "other" sites.
2. brag about being free
3. Have stupidly large file limits to attract crowd.
4. Burn through original venture capital.
5. Seek out new investors
6. Capitulate on your site's original goals.
7. Introduce tiered pricing plan
8. Mediocrity and loss of credibility. - jtjdt, on 10/12/2007, -1/+28People don't like the speeds you were getting. :-)
- LegendarySock, on 10/12/2007, -1/+27Filefront is also incredibly slow.
- thetaco82, on 10/12/2007, -0/+25I just uploaded a test file (free, unregistered) and am downloading it at around 250KB/s. I see mention of a daily download limit, but I can't find any specific details. Does anyone have more information?
- Desolite, on 10/12/2007, -1/+26this is obviously for pr0n... i guess my prayers have finally been answered
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -6/+27ok! looks like the site is sufferning a digg effect! if they cant handle a diggin why should we trust them with our files?
- Avengelist, on 10/12/2007, -1/+22Moeface: Stop using Kazaa, then.
- ollyx, on 10/12/2007, -1/+20look good, although I seriously doubt that it will kill p2p... nothing can kill real community spirit right?
- striker1211, on 10/12/2007, -1/+18The first rule of usenet is..... damn it, you already broke that rule now you must die.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+18music + torrents + organization freak = me spending my friday night labelling music instead of dating :(
- Desolite, on 10/12/2007, -0/+17they hope to have a large user base by then to justify high pricing for ad space... at which point the service will go to sh!t and a new site will come out touting free this and that for people to flock to, thus completing the circle of life.
- toppgun, on 10/12/2007, -7/+22why was i dugg down for stating a fact?
- rzurad, on 10/12/2007, -0/+15or you could stick to good 'ol fashioned p2p.
- NightRush, on 10/12/2007, -1/+15Nobody can kill torrent...
Nice little site however, see how long it lasts. Quite the absence of ads.. odd.. - Moeface, on 10/12/2007, -5/+19I don't think I'll use this, I'll stick with P2P. I mean, who _doesn't_ want to spend time sifting through hundreds of badly labeled, corrupt, bad quality music!?
- merreborn, on 10/12/2007, -1/+13"Could sites like this kill P2P networks?"
No. We had sites like this before, in the late nineties. Then they started getting takedown notices. That's why we *moved* to P2P -- decentralization made it a hell of a lot harder for the **AA to get at us. - mykelefty, on 10/12/2007, -2/+14thats cause your obviously a liar and dont go to college
- inkubux, on 10/12/2007, -0/+11Yeaaaah riiiiight:
"No registration required !
Choose your file in the FREE Center
section of the homepage and hit
upload !"
when I click on that button It ask me to register ....
" Register for a free account"
At the top of the page. - PacoBell, on 10/12/2007, -3/+14Pfft! RARhost already offers unlimited filesize hosting. Search for it on Digg as it's already been submitted.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+11Are you guys digging him down because he said the premium price or something?
- kewlceo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+12^ Inspires confidence?
- afex, on 10/12/2007, -0/+10"all illegal files will be deleted and added to our patented filter technology"
something about me doubts that someone who uses the words 'u' and 'tho' (in later comments) got a patent on a filtering algorithm... - WillyMF1, on 10/12/2007, -0/+10me. why do we need 30 of them?
- tybris, on 10/12/2007, -1/+11"Could sites like this kill P2P networks?"
... No - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10does it come with rounded corners?
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+11well linux of course
- Terc, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9Bittorrent
try uTorrent for Windows, Transmission for Mac, maybe azureus for the linux folk - Egotrippin, on 10/12/2007, -6/+14I digg it. Easy to register and $5 a month for the premium package is not that bad.
- jessejoedotcom, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8I've tried to register with 3 different e-mail addresses, and each time it says it's invalid.
- sneeka2, on 10/12/2007, -2/+10And I was just looking for a site like this! No, really! Need to put a hi-def video online, so YouTube or Google are out...
Digg is... scary... sometimes. - JoeyDeacon, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8Doesn't accept Gmail addresses. No way I'm giving this site any other address.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9Good luck finding something legal over a gig that someone actually wants.
- usefulidiot, on 10/12/2007, -7/+15that someone actually wants he said
- soopah256, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8haha, seems to be down already.
for a site that's suppose to host huge files, it's not very reliable. - jcolson, on 10/12/2007, -2/+9Message: Error connecting to database.
Code: -1 - touch0ph, on 10/12/2007, -3/+10Yeah I'm having trouble registering my Gmail account as well.
- merreborn, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8Actually, P2P killed sites like this!
- djchester, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8The site is down and is still "light years ahead"? :D no digg! inaccurate!!
- bdmbdm, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7Hello piracy.
- bart5986, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7what on earth can you legally put on here thats 1.5gb?
I think that like most other uploading services they will just claim they don't allow illegal files when they really know its how they get popular.
All of them do it... except filefront. - SpeckledJim, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7Guess it'll do OK until their VC money runs out and they have to find a new way to pay those bandwidth bills.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7Site looks like a generic php upload script to be honest. The filesize and bandwidth will probably last about as long as digg's attention span then it'll quickly become akin to rapidshare.
Same goes for all the other "innovative" copies of the same script that get posted on digg. - DuoPros, on 10/12/2007, -4/+10@bobothn
I'm having trouble registering for gigasize *with* my gmail account.
I already have one, but thanks for the kind gesture :-). - SpeckledJim, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6Someone is digging down all the comments reporting that database error. I wonder who that might be.
- EmileVictor, on 10/12/2007, -3/+9They need CACHEFLY!
- Lifelogger, on 10/12/2007, -3/+9Bittorent? What about UseNet! :-)
UseNet is so much faster. Ok, I agree that you have to be a little more patient on finding movies, but people are always willing to upload. -
