Streamload

I'm thinking about getting a Streamload account... I have the free version now. But for 5 $ you get only 2 GB per month and to pay almost 10 $ every month for the 2nd level which gives you 25 GB is a bit too much, I think...

Can someone give an advice in this? Is it even worth it to have a Streamload account?

I use my account all the time. I pay $99/year for 300GB. It's more than I'll use in a year, but it's great for me to share things with other people. It's also a good place to keep backups of all my files. I even keep all the fanart I've downloaded backed up there, not just my anime.

There are sites online for people to share files (anime and manga) through Streamload. That's how I've gotten a lot of older series.

I'd suggest starting with a month-to-month plan, rather than paying for a whole year. See if you actually use it enough to keep it.

I think you are right. I will apply for the first month and then I will see :)
