After recent court ruling against Rapidshare the leading file-hoster has now uploaded a privacy policy to address user concerns regarding privacy with usage of their services,  the well laid privacy-policy provides all the necessary information to address user concerns, however it has some clauses which might be concerning like :

Will RapidShare pass information about uploaders on to third parties?

If we are legally obliged to turn over information about the origin of a file, we will fulfill that obligation. The legal circumstancees will be evaluated individually in each case. Without a legal basis, no information will be given to third parties.

However, the policy also states : Read the rest of this entry »

Rapidshare.Com has decided to decrease the download limit for new premium customers to 80 GB per month from 300 GB earlier (10 GB per day), old premium account holders will continue to enjoy the earlier limits until they extend their premium account after the policy change.

The new download limit roughly translates to 2.6 GB of daily downloads which should be more then enough for most users, but can be a limiting factor if you have a very high-speed connection and download heavily, if you are not happy with the new limit give Rapidshare alternative VIPeers or MediaFire a try.

Megaupload restricts users from non-english speaking countries from downloading files at peak hours with error:

All download slots assigned to your country are currently in use. Please try again in a few hours or install the Megaupload Toolbar for immediate access – with the toolbar installed, there are no more slot limitations for you!

You can bypass the restrictions using megaupload’s alexa toolbar but it is classified as SPYWARE by various security softwares and many users do not prefer to install the toolbar. Their exist several megaupload download hacks to bypass these restrictions but majority of them are outdated and do not work now.

Megaupload Downloader 2008 is a new free utility to bypass restrictions imposed by Megaupload allowing anyone to download unlimited files, the software is easy to use and works similar to your existing browser. You can also search for files on megaupload using the in-built file-search options.

 By eliminating the captchas we simplified the use of RapidShare’s free services significantly. In addition, free-users can now upload and download bigger files (up to 200 megabyte). Anyhow, to protect RapidShare from congestion caused by automated downloading, we limited the maximum download speed for free?users to 500 kilobit per second. To compensate for that, they do not have to wait anymore until starting a succeeding download. Premium-users now profit from more flexibility regarding the download volume: It used to be limited to 10 gigabyte per day and can be "saved" now to a maximum of 50 Gigabyte. As a consequence, the volume that was not used is transferred to the following day automatically, up to a maximum of 50 gigabyte. If the complete download capacity is used up during one day, the premium-user is able to save another 10 gigabyte the following day.

RapidShare is the world leader in one-click file hosting arena, despite being the most popular file-sharing service rapidshare.com lacks file search feature, the only reason I can assume they lack this feature is to avoid searching of copyrighted files by their legal owners getting illegally distributed by this pirate friendly file-hosting service. Nevertheless, their exist many services which allow you to search files hosted on rapidshare.com and other major file-sharing services like Megaupload.com, these free file search engines can be used to search for links of software, movies, music and ebooks hosted on rapidshare and similar services.

• MegaLeecher.net has compiled a list of  top free Rapidshare search engines.
