[eggman]

When will it be shut down ?
This clearly proves that it is a false rumour

 

[nvidia]

^^they are not going to shut down.. So what if rapidshare shuts down?? Another 1000 sites like RS will come up.

 

[axxo]

Im sad its not really happening..
RS is so popular coz of the fact that there were not too many alternative file hosting service available at the time which is not the case now..
So closing of RS really helps more file transfer to be made possible thru better & promising services in the forms of mediafire, divshare, 4shared, enips & so on.
"SHUTDOWN RAPIDSUX"

There are hell lot of other file sharing sites which are better then Rapid Share. Who cares whether it's shut down or not...

^^ wtf wrong with you

the news was a few months old, and stated that (at the time of writing) RS will be shut down in a few months. Thats about now.

So I bumped the thread to see if any updates on the event were available.

Does that make me wrong ?

 

[CadCrazy]

No.See below

I don't think rapidshare is closing. They will file many lawsuits and finally continue.

By the way, why are you so unhappy with rapidshare.

 

[desiibond]

afaik, it's for rapidshare.de, based in Germany.

rapidshare.com servers are in Denmark (i think) and German courts can't do anything about that.
