I use Mega with IPVanish.

Once you hit the 5GB limit (in 1 day), you pause the downloads, right click ipvanish in the system tray and select Change IP, then start the downloads.

MEGA is high speed, has MegaSync so you can queue up all your downloads, set a bandwidth limit so it doesn't break your internet for the duration of the downloads and just let it go.

Personally speaking, I use more the torrent side. But that's because I download other things beside hentai games in this forum - obliviously films, music, normal games and such. When I'm here however, my favorite one is MEGA since for me it's fast like there's no tomorrow and in around one hour, for example, I can manage to download a single file of 3GB or more. Of course if I've the right amount permitted by MEGA since that frickin' limit it's annoying as hell (and that's why I.. yes, I end up installing their own programs just to upgrade temporarily my limits, upload and download. But then I remove them almost immediately) - Yes, I know about programs and stuff, but I would gladly download everything normally, without downloading so many shit inside my computer because of them.

At least GDrive doesn't have limits, as far as I know. I can download pretty much everything from there, but it's not like MEGA sometimes.

I like GDrive more than Mega honestly.

Don't see why it isn't more popular, maybe it sucks for people trying to download from outside the states or something.

I suggest I found it 2 months ago. It's free and there is password option. Also no needed registration. File can be deleted after download. So It's secure. I liked it's speed. You can transfer files up to 4GB. There is unlimited upload and download.
