- = NO MORE RAPIDPOINTS = -- = Important Rapidshare.com News = -
**************************************
- = Important Rapidshare.com News = - - = NO MORE RAPIDPOINTS = - ************************************** . Code:
rapidshare.com/news.html Reward programme: RapidPoints and RapidDonations to be discontinued . June 18, 2010 . As of July 1, 2010 RapidShare's RapidPoints programme will be discontinued. This decision by the company is a reaction to claims that the reward programme rewards the uploading of contents that are protected by copyright. We feel it is necessary to undertake this step as we do not wish RapidShare's users to be exposed to such an unjustified general suspicion. Our primary objective remains to provide users with a fast, secure and reliable service. . What will the changes mean for our users? First, nobody will lose any points that have already been accumulated. You can redeem them until July 6, 2010. Please also note that within the next days we will offer you an opportunity to convert a Collector's account into a free Premium account and to transfer your points into this Premium account. . Unfortunately, we must also give up the RapidDonation scheme. An amount of 10,000 Euros was collected for each and every organisation and project that was introduced. We would like to take this opportunity to thank all the donors for their contributions! We are currently exploring how we can continue the donation programme in the future. . Clearly, we would like to continue rewarding customers who recruit new clients. As soon as we have developed a new reward programme, we will of course contact you immediately to provide more details. . Last edited by jdlc; 20.06.2010 at 15:10. |

I think this will mean a huge loss of uploading to RS. Without being able to earn Premium, I think most uploaders will opt for a different host. What do you think?
On the other hand, RS will not have to worry as much about copyright abuse. |

I think RS has the fastest download speed.
I have a 15 Mbps (=1.8 MBytes/s) adsl connection and if I download only one file at a time from RS the download speed is about 1.7 MBytes/s = 13.6 Mbps. At the same condition: hotfile only 300 KBytes/s = 2.4 Mbps sharingmatrix 400 KBytes/s = 3.2 Mbps But if there will be no points, then a lot of people will turn to other hosts. Reading their news, it looks like they will end the collector's accounts only Premium accounts will be in use, or am I wrong?? |

Wrong. They never mentioned removing or disabling Collectors accounts. They just offer you to convert it into a free Premium account which you can then extend by using your existing points (Before this, you could not apply your points to the same account - only create new accounts).
Besides, every file hoster offers a free account. Collectors = Free for Rapidshare. |
