What sucks about fileplanet is that sure, they use the money to support the service, 
but
ONLY PEOPLE WHO PAY CAN DOWNLOAD THE FILES.

People who do not want to pay, or CAN'T pay, (underage, no credit card, no money,
whatever) simply can't get the files.

Oh, sure, you say they have mirrors in places where the server has a max of 20 
people...

But their main servers are always full, and often you have to wait hours and hours for
one stupid tiny file that could have been put anywhere else much easier.

I say: If fileplanet makes money off of OUR files, they should give a portion of that 
to
the author.

If you create a game that thousands of people download because its so popular, you
should get 10% of what fileplanet makes on it.

If stupid annoying fileplanet (which i hate with a passion) doesn't do that, then
someone else should.
