I never used MEGA anyway. Always felt Mediafire was much safer.

I have some files still sitting on Mega, might grab those in case of anything. This is sad to see, Mega always looked and seemed so high quality, I loved using Mega when I needed it.

Thanks for the warning, sir

This Bill Liu character is interesting. I wonder why China wants to extradite him so bad.

I learned my lesson when MegaUpload went down.

I lost 300GB of files on MU, and although they were backed up locally, It didn't help my website at the time- of which MegaUpload was the only gateway to download files. Since then, pertaining to my website, In the event something like this happens, I have 7 alternate download links. If one goes down, there's no Impact on my site.

It's a shame though, that something like this will probably happen.
