As many of you have noticed, Rapidshare has nerfed our download limits from 10gb a day to 80gb a month, so lets say 2.3 per day? I took this letter from another rapidshare users website and figured that many people here would like to send one in as well considering the circumstances.
To Rapidshare Management,
As a long time user of your online file hosting service, I am disappointed to see some of the changes you have recently made. While you did increase your bandwidth and servers, allowing us to maintain fast download speeds, and a large amount of online storage, many of us are unhappy to see that you have downgraded our monthly download limit by a substantial amount, and at the same time premium account prices have remained the same. How can you justify a substantial decrease in your services while keeping prices the same?
The only reason I could think of that would bring about this change is due to a high number of new users signing up for your services, which would increase the amount of bandwidth used. However, as I have stated, not too long ago you boasted on your website that you had increased your bandwidth and servers for this very reason. So with that, I cannot figure out why you have turned what used to be the best online file hosting service into somewhat of a joke now.
I, along with thousands of RS.com users, feel that if you continue to provide a subpar service at the same price as before, we will begin to look for a new online file host that won’t make us feel like we are wasting our money.
I hope this email helps you to rethink your latest business strategy.
Yours sincerely,
a disappointed Rapidshare user.
