KatFile will be Discontinued... one day screenshot
we'll be discontinuing KatFile as our primary mirror soon, so please do not buy or prolong your premium.

UPD: so after reading all the comments and reviewing the rating, i've decided not to replace KF until there will be a really decent alternative, because the only one i had in mind is NitroFlare, which is not that much better than KF, but at least they are one of the strongest on the market.

Remember, to me the top criteria is reliability, which means that FS has to be around for at least several years and developed good reputation;
it also has to be widely used elsewhere, so you wouldn't have to buy premium just for AudioZ.

most of the alternatives that you mentioned are either new, have bad reputation, don't work somewhere or for someone.
Torrents are off the table. It was almost perfect file sharing protocol, but these days they are so massively blocked and even prosecuted in some countries, that i simply don't see any future for torrents on this layer of internet.
I had high hopes for iPFS since they started and i keep watching it, but even so far iPFS doesn't work as it supposed to.

therefore let's leave things as they are for now, but please don't pay for the annual premium expecting it to last in this unstable industry.

Why don't we start using Drive or Mega or something similar that is free and got speed and not spammy ads and stuff like Rapid and Kat had? Also, if possible maybe we can use torrent for large files? I understand the part that who's gonna keep seeding, but maybe we can keep it up for first few days and then later have secondary links to Drive and stuff.

Mmm, torrents, mega, debrids... what a great ideas!

But the question is: WHO will be buying new stuff?

All of you guys have ignored my message (who would have thought) - ok, you don't care about releasers and don't want to pay releasers, it's not your problem, got it!

All you want is to download for free with high speed some new and expensive stuff and make profit out it! dope! me too!

Some of you even got a monetized resources - what's good, audionews and co?

So the best solution is you guys will start to give back to the community: buy new stuff and share it here for free using mega, torrents or whatever you like!

Me, other releasers and members will be glad to download everything for free with high speed and ofc we would appreciate your contributions and say THANK YOU!

If you don't know how to post or what to buy feel free to PM me I will help you, there are so many products to SHARE)

Waiting for a huge wave of dope FREE releases from the biggest pirat community next year!

Torrents works great for those who have a real Internet connection with public IP.
As there are no more IPv4 addresses, so some ISPs use PAT/NAT which makes use of any P2P impossible as long as it is not server based. You can download but not upload to other peers.

There are many torrent sites available, incl free ones. I NEVER pay anything. Good ratio is no problem if you keep your box online and have public IP.

Files get deleted on fileshare services as well...

Why don't you add a MEGA or something FAST and FREE?

And of course the "please respect uploader and dont share other links" is just contra-productive. That is not what the community should be about. If that rule wasn't available, people could add Mega or torrent links as well...

Fileshare companies delete files after some time if it is not actively downloaded for some weeks... so old files won't be online anyways and needs to be re-upped.

I have no problem adding torrents for all VST uploads and keep online for year after year... I'm already doing it.

KAT is always 1.st choice for me, Rapidgator only if files are broken. No Nitro because of LS
Rapidgator is often a pain in the ass with small files.
My gratitude and appreciation for each release, generates three additional customers for the developer

Now using Real Debrid since UL is dead, meaning any "RD" referenced hoster(s) should do the trick i guess...*<;-) Not a big fan of torrent but should have my mtorrent somewhere still!

Hello Saint, how are you? Well, I don't know what the reason is, but I used to generate links for free on a quite well-known website. It's understandable and logical that uploaders need to make some money for their great work. The problem is that not everyone can afford a storage and download service. I wish we could, but many of us can't; things are tough in my country. With a small VST of a few megabytes, you might wait a few minutes, perhaps an hour. The problem arises with large files; you can't finish downloading them for free from the provider. But well, if it's for the good of the website, so be it. That's my humble opinion.
If you only look at one side of the coin, you'll never truly know if it's a coin.

I reckon you must have a good reason, and I always preferred Rapidgator anyway. As for a replacement, I'm fine with any host that you deem fit that is supported by real-debrid

I've never had a problem downloading from KatFile. I download using https://fakirdebrid.net/

And I download a lot from here, never ran into any issues.

Edit: I forgot to mention, fakirdebrid is super cheap too, idk if the prices changed recently, but about a year ago I paid only $104 for 4tb worth of downloading. You can either buy a timed based plan, or a storage based plan, and storage is way better imo cuz you can download whenever.

Also katfile is unlimited generations per day, no limits for that host

I believe that no one should use AZ without having a debrid service: free mode is masochism. I mean, how do you download a 40GB library in free mode?
So, what will Katfile be replaced with? Torrents? They are so 2000's ...
  Member 27.05.2014 153

Totally agree about having to use a debrid service.I l find it hard to believe that guys say they can't afford use one.If you are making music you need keyboard,speakers,computer etc but you are saying you can't afford 60-70 dollars a years to buy debrid.If no more katfile then it better be one supported by Linksnappy who supposedly is supported by this site.

I access KF through Real Debrid and Jdownloader and it's mostly been without problems. A couple of hiccups here or there, but generally it's fine. It was a problem at first when the site first chose KF as a primary mirror since it wasn't covered by Real Debrid at the time. That was a problem and sometimes forced me to have to find links or torrents elsewhere.

I'm seeing a number of uploaders here now using Nitroflare. Maybe I'm wrong, but it's giving me the vibe that must be the new 'they pay uploaders better' flavor of the month. Once again though it's another one that Real Debrid doesn't currently offer. Whatever you choose SAiNT, I hope this time you'll go with one that finds a compromise between uploaders and downloaders here and not just go with what one side of the equation wants. Compromise always works better, leads to a better environment.

Nitroflare completely blocked in the UK. Even VPN's won't let you access it.

Katfiles has been hell for me for a few months now. If I use Chrome or Firefox, I get a message that the Captcha was wrong (it wasn't) so try again in two hours.

It's usable in Brave, but I avoid it if I can.

Wasn't aware of that with Nitro in the U.K.. Hopefully the admins here are aware of that and it gives them a reason to hopefully avoid it. I guess from you mentioning a Captcha on KF that you're trying the 'free' route on that. You know, about 2 months ago I signed up for 6 months Real Debrid, it was $17.51 USD. That would equal less than 16 Euro's for 6 months. I know many people are struggling right now, and if you can't do it I get it. But if you could swing the under 3 Euro a month for a 6 month sub you'd find it much, much easier. Good luck, and again, sorry to hear you're struggling with this stuff.

As far as I know, not all hosts pay download rewards the same way, some have better rewards than others. Said that, perhaps the choice on where to place the warez files is up to the releasers
  Banned 16.09.2015 158

Actually, that's incorrect recycle. The site admins decide on which hosters must be offered with all uploaded files. The "releasers" can then add additional hosting sites at their own choice, but the admins decide which one's are mandatory. So, for example, currently KF and RG are mandatory. The rest are the uploaders choice.
  Resident 9.06.2013 3 1092

The Admin choice on mandatory hosts won't be random: it must be a compromise between the needs of users vs releasers. This thread helps Saint to understand what users think, the needs of releasers are known: the host with the highest rewards

If you guys think the "please for mac" comments are annoying just wait for an avalanche of "seed please" ones if you decide to go torrent way.
I've been using RG for years with only rare problems. From what I've read here the complaints with Kat is their capcha and they don;t want even a minor inconvenience to get free stuff.
If you want torrent just go to *ru site it's all there.

Hells yeah. I have a machine that is currently seed-box capable. On a private tracker it ain't no thing to seed. The dicey bits come when seeding on public trackers.

I could be wrong but it seems most people upvoting to get rid of katfile are those too cheap to buy debrid service and hoping for free file hoster which is not going to happen because those don't pay what uploaders want.

As mentioned, Nitroflare won't work for most people in the UK.
