What's wrong with the Good Hosts?

like uploading 100 topics for 3$? Thanks but no thanks.
I would rather not upload at all then

So what is your backup plan when all hosts end up giving up rewards one day?

Warez will never die Dlow.. filesharing has existed for years and years. its just recently it went mainstream as it has,what did you guys think would happen when you started earning from illegal copyrighted material?

Depends, maybe I'll open website, ad google adsense and try to monetize it
Or, make videos, send it on youtube and monetize it

Maybe I can get in porno industry...hmmm

I'm not going to cry...well, at least not more than a month...

I understand you just want to make money, probably the only reason you upload, but could you not at least give a mirror on a proper host?

Also, new ways will appear eventually, to make money through uploading.

we are uploading because we are after at the money..thats the reason..

Now before everyone starts praising RS, let me tell you they are also no better. When I started uploading a couple of years back, I started with RS but then they terminated three accounts of mine coz of which I lost around 5TB of files and 10K rapids. After that I quit RS and joined HF but now they terminated my 2 year account as well.

None of the hosts really care about their users just like the downloaders only care about what serves them best. When it comes to crunch time, every host including your beloved RS/MU will be more than happy to kick us uploaders to the curb, take the cash and make a run for it.

If people start uploading warez to the good hosts, the "Good hosts" won't be good for long, they'll create the same problems as the "Substandard hosts" create now, slower speeds for free users, forcing users to purchase premium etc..
Just like Rapidshare during the supposedly "warez glory days", everybody used to upload to Rapidshare and it sucked for free users.
Anyways, look at the bright side, just because people get paid to upload you have whole now lot of content, earlier we had to depend on P2P for some downloads but now you can virtually find everything on filehosts..

Besides, the general rule of economics is that "People respond to incentives", if their is no incentive to upload, the rational users won't be uploading..Just my humble opinion.
