Re: Alternative To Dropbox

@Dark: Yeah, how stable are those Sendspace links, and can you link to the files directly? That's really what matters for sharing. I see from your previous posts that links you've shared take you to a dedicated download page with ads that you can pay to remove--that's annoying, but tolerable, I suppose. But these services invariably fall into the grey zone of ad sponsorship that I find a bit dodgy, along with RapidShare and Mega, that I invariably dislike because they sacrifice some quality to serve the free user population. Might as well just use a hoster and pay for the bandwidth you actually use. For now I have been using S3+CloudFront (all the links to files I've posted on this board are hosted there, for example, and continue to work and will do so for the foreseeable future), but this is clumsy as it requires command-line foo to work and moreover I have to upload everything twice--once to my backup, and once for sharing. Not that I mind when the alternati ve is Dropbox, which limits the number of downloads and is very slow outside the USA, or asking people to see ads.
