Large download solutions:

1. As pointed out before, download to MEGA (your own mega cloud, and download at your leisure from there. (Still took me 2 days, but hey! I wasn't in a rush!)

2. With the limits, I download on a seperate PC, so I leave them until they are finished, they automatically carried on after the 5 hour timeout.

3. IP address. You could use TOR browser, but a new identity will reset everything, you would need to know where you where before the reset. BJ may know about changing IP with VPN, sadly I don't.

4. Virus solutions. Add your download folder as an exception.

 

Hope this helps.

Changing location on vpn worked for me without losing any data downloaded with the 5 gig limit.

Just a bit frustrated wit MEGA. Hopefully Sofa King will stay up forever because that's how long it's going to take for me to download it ... and I really want it! Just thinking out loud, do I have to spend about $11 to get this downloaded in less than a month ... or ... is it possible for somone to torrent it which would be f**kin' awesome! I'm 31% into the first 661 tracks and have to wait 3+ hours because it's 2.3 gigs and to top it off, I know it won't restart when my time is up so I'll probably have another senior moment, push the wrong button and have to start over.

 

Hi @Esmir54 Here's what ive tried with MEGA since I experienced that probelem too before...

 

1. use a vpn..( I use wireguard)

2. whenever you click a link from MEGA shared here, I hope it opens up a new tab, it will take you to the shared folder of the sharer

3. click the "SAVE to MEGA" (provided you have an account on MEGA)

4. provide your login credentials on MEGA

5. then create you folder to save/transfer it to until it's completes...takes just a couple of seconds.

6. after that, you can try downloading it...and not worry if the original sharer deletes the original copies since you already have it copied to your own account. or you can opt to download it at a later time.

 

Hope this works for you as well

Thanks BJ, appreciated.

 

From the bulk homestar download

1. The 2 HSC discs are HSW's

2. HSG003 and 5 are missing (was there a 4?)

3. HSW019, 103, 104, and 218 are also missing

4. and as BJ points out, I have a listing for 4 SFHS discs which are also missing, but there may be more.

 

Many thanks again for the downloads, Any offers for the missing?

Lol, I never said it was complete, just the collection I had. The naming errors probably crept in due to the ripping software i was using at the time auto-populating the Disc and Track fields. Sorry for any confusion, but I did those a LONG time ago!

A torrent is always the best option.

 

Onedrive downloads regularly fail and there is no resume.

 

Mega has limitations for free users but it does have resume. I have never experienced that downloading stops if the tab is not in the forefront.

 

Mega sets the limits using your IP address. So I find I can download by only selecting a couple of gigs to download, and after completing it I restart my modem, which gives me a new IP address, and select a couple more gigs to download etc. etc.

 

Most of the time by doing it that way you are not even required to log in.

 

Or with Mega use a VPN, OR Get a real-debrid account (very cheap) and download with JDOWNLOADER 2 (This is what I do)

Like i've already said it can remain there for as long as you all need it , years if you like.

Also as i've said download them by letters ie; A-B-C . A tip for downloading highlight the songs you're downloading right click INFO from the drop down box and it will tell you the size of the download, add or delete until you get your download allowance for the day switch the screen off and go do something else EASY PEASEY

Somehow, I captured some lightning in a bottle. Assuming we're still talking about Sofa King ... I downloaded MEGAs desktop app, figured out how to download files and set the target folder to a drive and folder on my PC. ABRACADABRA, in little more than 2 hours I had ALL the tracks right where I can check them out and retag as necessary. BOOM!!
