    Actaully all sites want sales so if your files are not giving them profit they may ultimately reject your payments. So its better to stick with few hosts rather than using all.

    Filesonic & Filepost are the current best ones after Wupload. Also remote upload from Wupload to these sites works very well also file tiers are almost same so no need of resizing the files.

    It may be nonsense for some people but its the plain truth. If your files don't bring enough sales to filehost how can they pay. For a big host it may not be much problem as some users bring more sales while some less so they can compensate. But majority of filehosts which are not getting enough sales will ultimately reject ppd earnings which do not contribute enough no of sales.

    If filehosts are simply run to get downloads why they have to introduce free & premium accounts with all sorts of limiting features like captcha, ads, delay, waiting time between downloads, file size download limit etc. All these are introduced to get sales. They can only pay their bills and pay their affiliates if they get enough sales and its affiliates duty to bring as much sales to the filehosts, then only they can survive.

    The plain truth is if you have a premium account the files live forever its not the premium account holders responsibility to do anything he/she has paid for the use of the service and unlimited storage time no sales needed.
    If they relinquish their premium then yes as a free user the files will be removed if they have not been downloaded within the time span set by the host.

    So as for not paying maybe tell us who all the hosts are who will not pay dues owed if the files are not getting sales, because that goes completely against the terms of a premium account.

    I think Filesonic is the best! You can use Fileserve as a mirror.

    I put a file up yesterday with a load of file hosts and these are the download numbers so far:

    Rapidshare: 46
    Fileserve: 4
    Filesonic: 4
    Wupload: 2
    Filejungle: 0
    Filepost: 0

    Make of that what you will.

    I am not talking about premium account but rather about ppd earnings. No host will continue to pay ppd money if his/her files do not bring enough sales. So if a affiliate give plenty of mirror links for example 5 host links then its almost sure none of the filehost get any sales from his files so ultimately these filehosts will find a reason to reject his/her payments.

    Can you point me to evidence anywhere that a file host has ever cancelled someone's account for not bringing in enough sales?

    I am not in an argument, but there are several hosts who do that, not quoting anyone's name here. All those scam labels we see in digital point are actually those sites who refuse to pay because those affiliates are not bringing enough sales or profit to the company. This is the reason why we see some affiliates get paid always while some affiliates don't get paid and they call these filehost's as scam.

    Actually if you read back you said all hosts stop paying, and the scam hosts you see on DP are scams from the beginning with the intention of scamming from day one. It has nothing to do with sales or anything legit

    They want a quick buck and then clear off onto the next scam host domain.

    Yes most of the scam sites are starting affiliate program with an intention to scam later but many legitimate sites too are there which are forced to reject payments because of business loss.

    I wouldn't go with FilePost. They just banned someone for uploading movies. I guess games and music and tv will be next. LAME.
