Apparently, RapidShare thought it was being too generous and friendly to its users and decided to take some rather drastic action in its Terms of Use.
Two changes are particularly nasty.
Premium Accounts
The download volume will be reduced from 10 GB a day to 80 GB a month. The sum of accumulated download traffic will be reduced from 50 GB to 10 GB.
Free Users
Files that are stored completely anonymously (without Premium or Collector’s Account) can now only be downloaded 10 times. However, a file can be moved into a Collector’s or Premium Account afterwards so that downloading is possible again.
The full story is here:

“Fit for the future” is the name they chose. To me they seem to follow the general notion that fit means thin, i.e. having a thinner customer base.
So, let’s have comments and suggestions for better altlernatives.
