Hey Max – nice free registered user downlaod limit increase 🙂
Was wondering what the max speed a non rarefile premium can download at?
This is the best thing that has happened to be in this epidemic
Thank you Max…you are the best
LOL Blue Star, thanks to Rarefile for allowing this to happen, they are the ones who are the best, thank you very much
Thank You Max for allowing downloading of larger files. Is the 10GB per 5 days limit still in effect?
Great news Max, hopefully it means we can download several episodes at once? Also any chance you can find the 80s/90s UK childerens series Moondial and Dark Season? The chabox is still disabled.
Max
This is worthless, Because even if you increase the download limit to 3GB, the download speed is still 60 kb/sec to 100 kb/sec. For Example if I want to download a 400mb file ,it will take approximately 1 hour. Just calculate the time I need to download the 3 GB file. [app. 8 hours]. Now tell you whether this is good news for free users. You should not consider this as compliant, this is frustration of free users.
Max
Thanks for the increase in download file size for free user, but I would preferred you give free user the option whether to download a single large file, or choose the smaller file size divided into several parts. Personally I prefer the later. The reason being fully explained by “snehap” above.
Hello Lmsoo and Snehap, kindly allow me to explain please:
1. Free users can now download files more than 500MB – and there are many especially TV series that has too many episodes that were not repacked and archived into several parts.
2. You need to consider that waiting time for a free user to download each file:
– One hour waiting time for each file – if you are downloading a 3 GB file – right now you dont have to wait – You can download the 3GB file immediately
– If its divided into 6 parts – thats an additional waiting time of 5 hours (since the first link is downloadable after solving the captcha)
3. Downloading Speed
Downloading a 3GB file will take the same time IN TOTAL whether you are downloading it as one file or 6 files, except that there is no waiting time for each file to be downloaded, which means that downloading the bigger file is faster than downloading 6 different files.
Just like other file hosters, this is the way everybody’s doing it now, you can check them out and their download speed is 50KBPS. It will just take some time to get used to it.
We have received a lot of requests to increase the download size for free users for a few years now and we studied it to make will be beneficial for all users. Rarefile followed the structure of other file hosters.
Im so sorry if you are not happy with this new major update, we thought we were doing this to make things easier for all downloaders, beside that it will also make our job easier. We are hoping that you will also see the benefits.
Thank you very much and stay safe.
Mr Max, many thanks for the clear explanation. I have already said it is not a complaint only my frustration like ” oh god I am not able to access all these information” uploaded by max . In my opinion your are not doing very great job, you are doing GREAT SERVICE .There is lot of difference between Duty and Service. Hope you know very well. I asked/requested only one thing if it is possible kindly set the download speed at 100kbps constantly.
Hello Snehap, when we decided to increase the file size for all users, i discussed this with rarefile for approval – and they did after several weeks, the download speed will remain at 100KBPS, please take note that nothing has changed for the speed from before, while you can download from other file hosters at 50KBPS, rarefile has retained the 100KBPS, however there will be a variation depending on several factors, location, the number of people downloading the same file, etc. Rest assured the 100KBPS will remain, and lets hope that our new discussion to increase it will have a favorable response, thank you very much for your understanding
Thanks Max
Hey Max – thanks for all you awesome work!!
I too hope rarefile increase from 100Kbps. Some other hosters have faster free download speeds – like mega.co.nz – they have Mbps (not sure of their cap – but have seen 4 and above)
Not saying rarefile should do that – but at least 500Kbps to 1Mbps would be awesome!!
Thanks,
John
Ps: there is no wait time with smaller files either – reset your internet connection, get a new IP address and away you go
This has always been a way round download limits and wait times 🙂
Well – as long as your internet does not have a static IP Addess
LOL John, your suggestion is correct, you can reset and you dont have to wait – but you can apply this on one big file or several small files, right? So dont you think its better to have less resetting than more? Also everyone should be glad that a lot of TV series that has too many episodes (which we didnt archive due to the tedious job of archiving) can now be downloaded by free users. Whichever angle you look at this, increasing the file size is beneficial to all users. Thank you very much
Only problem is that if internet connection goes off after 2.9GB even for 5 minutes, i will have to download 3 GB entirely from beginning
Hey Max, following your instructions in chat box to post on here instead of the box. Could you please find My Babysitter’s a Vampire (season 2 specifically). It is a tv show that is very hard to find. Thank you so much for all that you do! Stay safe!

Thank you so much!
HI Max, I’m a paid Rarefile subscriber. My Rarefile download speeds just dropped significantly. I also noticed that some files are no longer hosted on rarefile and being directed to other hosters? Hope you can help rectify. Thank you.
Hello ECSM, kindly take note that we dont upload to other any other file hoster except for rarefile, please make sure about that, please check your AV program, it might be interfering with your downloading, nothing has chaged with rarefile except for the bigger file size and speed is the same, thank you very much
Thanks for the update Max, I will check and update. Appreciate the quick response.
Thank you too ECSM
I am unable to do anything to the banner – error as below. Any ideas?
File Not Found
The file you were looking for could not be found, sorry for any inconvenience.
Possible causes of this error could be:
The file expired
The file was deleted by its owner
The file was deleted by administration because it didn’t comply with our Terms of Use
The file has been blocked by administration about investigation process with limited access.
Please disregard the message. I was on VPN internet connection, but when I went off it – it took. Thank you for the update Max.
Hi Max,

Thank you very much Herbal T, stay safe too
Hey Max,
I am all for whatever makes you h=job easier!!! Thats aid – free is free and people should be happy that there i sa free option to use
If they don’t like what is offered for free then pay for subsrciption – it really isn;t that much compared to alternatives.
Woudln’t have it any otehr way than a paid subscription 🙂
Though as ECSM – lately teh rarefile paid subscripion speeds have dropped very significantly.
I have seen some files download SLOWER than 50KBps yet I have a 100Mbps conenction.
I notmally can download up to 10MB p/s and rarefile anywhere between 5MB p/s to 10 MB p/s
Today was better but for teh past week or so – not so good
John
This is a great news, Max !!!
Finally it will be possible to download all (or most) of the great stuff you’re postiing w/out the need to follow endless <500mb chunks…
Looking forwrard…
MLG
Thank you very much Maria LaGuerta
Hello John, nothing has changed with rarefile except for increasing the file size for downloading, personally i have not experience and slow down except for peak internet usage in our city, but that will now depend on your location and the numbers of users using the same ISPs, with the pandemic that we have now, most ISPs have bottlenecks and this would affect your downloading speed, it has nothing to do with rarefile my friend, try downloading when you think there a less users to observe the difference, thank you very much
Max, I’m looking for an audiobook for my son called “Farmer Boy” by Laura Ingalls Wilder. I would appreciate it if you found it. Thanks for all your hard work.
Hello Second Chances, its now posted, thank you very much
Hi Max. Thanks for all the great stuff. Looking for the TV show “Street Legal (Canandian) , Season 1-9. will request for a post.
Thanks Max.
Thank you too Second Chances
Hello Zorro980, im sorry the series is very difficult to complete, thank you very much
Dear Max,
Do you know of any rarefile premium account provider in Malaysia? My usual one has disappeared. 🙁
Hello SeanC, i honestly dont know, what you can do is to email contact@rarefile.net and ask them who their reseller is in Malaysia, thank you very much
Larger files? It has taken almost two hours to download an 183 mb file and I still have 40 mb to go.
Not going to bother if the files are larger. I can use torrents which are faster and have more users. I cannot change ISP either as I am on a fixed provider.
Hello Johanna, thats your choice, downloading a 500MB file whether its one file or two files will take the same time to download, but you dont need to wait for an hour to download the second file which ia s huge advantage, the download speed is constant whether its one or two files, thank you very much
Max, Can you find Veritas System Recovery 21 for me? I appreciate it.
Thanks for everything.

Hi Max, hopefully you are a little less busy now and can look for the anime series Mob Psycho 100 please?
the rare.file is not working at all, what is wrong? I am a paying customer, I have bought an entire year and really depend on this for my entertainment. Especially now during Covid-19. Thanks for the help.
