Downloading files from Rapidshare without standing in line

Downloading files from Rapidshare without standing in line

Want to download files from file sharing websites faster? 

Direct download sites (like Rapidshare and Megaupload) love your money. Honestly? Justifiably so. These sites who succeed in getting on record producers and movie studios nervous allow downloading almost every file you can imagine and quite quickly. Of course, only if you’re paying subscribers. If you’re just freeloaders you can download the required files but the downloading speed will be maddeningly slow and even worse: you’ll have to wait in line.

Yes, In line. We thought we said goodbye to the line and moved on to internet days, but we were wrong. An attempt to download files without a subscription will make you wait 60 seconds (quite a long time online) for the button to appear that will enable youto download the file – followed by a number of annoying stages such as clicking on a multitude of links (“Yes, I am sure I don’t want to make a paid subscription”) and solving a few frustrating captcha’s.

Want to skip all the nerves and go straight to download? Meet Tucan – an open code downloading manager that will do the work for you. This small and light program works on every OS you can think about (well, except Tommy Teacher’s) and specializes on bypassing lines.

How to use Tucan? Very simple: after downloading, open the program, click Add Downloads. Into a window that opens simply copy the downloading links to the direct downloading sites such as Rapidshare and when finished click on Check Links. The program will check that all the links are working and if so will start downloading, immediately the required files. No waiting, no captcha’s, no headaches.

As of today, the program supports 13 of these sites, and can definitely make life easier and faster. It is important to note that it won’t speed up the downloading rate – this is a luxury reserved for paid subscriptions. On the other hand, it will know how to manage multiple downloads from these sites and download the files one by one as quickly as possible. Fun.
Tucan is not a replacement for a paid subscription to file storage sites and heavy downloader’s may find that it may solve only one symptom of an annoying phenomenon but doesn’t completely remove the disease itself. However, if you are random downloader’s and want to avoid unnecessary complications, Tucan is certainly recommended.
