FileShoppe - With instant payouts! Not your typical file host

[mentegatto]

If you imagine the average file is 500MB, and the file host claims to pay $40 /1000 downloads, 600GB in 2 weeks means 1,200 downloads. So where the downloader is paying $6.00 for those downloads, the file host needs to pay at least $42!

Actually Netload has a basic revenue (lower rank) for uploaders of 0.5c per GB, that's half what they get from downloaders in nearly worst case scenario (user downloading 24h/24h with an "ordinary" speed connection), this seems sustainable for them because AFAIK they have always paid their bill.
However, as you said, this is not what you would like to do, so any comparision is not meaningfull.
I believe that your method of billing and paying is a sort of "revolution" in the file-hosting world.
I wish you good luck with your business.

Yes adult material is acceptable.

$0.05 /GB? How do they manage this? It has always illuded me how file hosts could actually make money unless their subscribers downloaded less than 50GB /month.

Thanks again for the cudos!

upload is slowly,about 300kb-400kb/s

[FShoppe]

Nebo, are you uploading to HK or USA? HK WILL be slow for people NOT in HK.

What about status of remote upload?

[FShoppe]

I think remote uploads will not be for another 2 weeks or so. Perhaps an 'alpha' version sooner.

[foxman]

Ok, you better extend domain.
