    So far Mega has the best cost/tb ratio.
    So until we find an alternative:
    - make sure to keep a back-up of the content on your hard-disk also;
    - Mega suspends accounts after three copyright claims. So keep an eye on your account and your e-mail. When you reach three copyright claims, make a new account and import everything from the old account;
    - help me catch the leaker. Check your Mega registered e-mail. Find e-mails with this title: "MEGA Claim of Alleged Infringement". Check to see for which one of your links it is. After that send me a message with the reported threads. This will help me to catch the member that reports the links, so thank you!

    Are you sure? Have you checked the spam folder also?
    Did you had a free or premium account with Mega?

    Using Mega-free accounts for storage of shares. Multiple closures without any notice (actually, I did get 1 notice once on one account) - just swinging from vine-to-vine for purpose of maintaining links . . .

    Single method of protecting content is give it a random name and password protect the archives.

    An alternative will be uploading to pixeldrain. It’s free and download is slow but it works.

    I would create a thread for this discussion that you can only enter with a certain number of likes. Because the people who don't upload anything are not affected by this topic anyway. As it is now, the person doing this can follow everything and be happy about his "success".

    Mega acct was just suspended a few minutes ago. No email warning. Premium ProI acct. Must have been something I imported TODAY!
