Welcome to DS Downloads!

This site is now updated by the Ev0Upd8r robot. Every twenty minutes, Ev0Upd8r scans repositories across the internet for new DS roms. If one of the repositories that our bot monitors has a new file, it adds it to our library and becomes available for you! Please note: This robot is currently in BETA and we are still writing it's learning (pseudo-AI) module. Therefore, it might have some hiccups in attempting to learn new repositories or repository layouts. If you think something's wrong, give us an email and we will correct the bot.

GL A Public Slandering Of PayPal 14-May-2008 by Albie (0 comments)
PayPal scammed us out of $500.
We did nothing wrong.
http://www.paypalsucks.com

The events of the last few days:
For the last week we have been negotiating an advertising deal with an online casino. It came in to fruition last night, and $500 was sent to our business PayPal account. We forwarded the money to a personal account (paying a $20 fee just to do this!) to withdraw to a bank account (Please note, a BUSINESS account is held by a different entity to the PERSONAL account, this IS NOT a violation of the ToS). I awoke this morning to find that the business account had been frozen, the withdrawal had been reversed, and the $500 was being "Held" by PayPal. They had no right to do this. This is when we found the site http://www.paypalsucks.com - turns out a lot of people have these sorts of horror stories. At this stage it looks as if we will never see that money again. This was an expensive lesson to learn, but a lesson learned anyway. We will never use PayPal again, and will encourage everyone who views this site to jump ship.

This will be the most expensive $500 that PayPal ever makes.

For those wondering, the money was to be spent on purchasing new hardware for our download server, and we will be honoring the advertising agreement with the casino - it's not their fault and they paid for it, at least someone can not get fucked over by the actions of these criminals.

GL New fixes as of 5/12/08 13-May-2008 by In Spades (2 comments)
List of fixes:

1. Some of you may have noticed that quite a few files were showing up corrupt in our archives. This is now fixed. Any/all files that are still showing up corrupt (or can't be extracted) should be reported either by the forums or e-mail, so a new copy can be found (it turned out about 95% of the files that were once though corrupt are now fixed). Speaking of which, some file longevity issues from our software moving around files during routine sequences beyond our control has been updated.

2. Our download daemon was having issues that translated into bandwidth leakage that are now fixed. This'll save about 50 bucks every bandwidth bill :P

3. Our database software has been robusted, now allowing for future expansion and less processing time on our end. (translation = faster loading times)

There's a few other things that are fixed on our end, that I won't get into on a public page. Enjoy!

Love,

GL Premuim Download Server? Comments wanted 11-May-2008 by Albie (4 comments)
We have always been very against charging people for downloads, but I keep getting emails requesting it, so I thought I'd get some general views on this...
For a flat monthly fee, users would get "Premium" access to all of our sites. Premium access would include:
Main things:
* 250-500 KB/s on all download files (Description: We already have a secret download daemon on our download server that can do this.. It has a global 70Mbit/s limit - the public download server has a 30Mbit/s for about a thousand times more users).. The Premium server will have a 70Mbit/s limit.. So most downloads will reach very high speeds
* Downloads allowed from all browsers (even IE)
* up to 5 simultaneous connections allowed from an IP at any one time (x5 speed using download accelerators OR 5 files downloading at a time)

Other features that are not so important
- No Ads
- No security check on downloads

The price for this would most probably be between US$5 to $10 per month.. payable only through PayPal.

Please post your thoughts & if you think you would ever be interested in this.

Further notes:
VIPs (the likes of master5o1, exp hog, gouki, hinky, amnesiac, and everyone else i've forgotten) would get this free if there were enough people paying. You would also get it free if you refer 3 friends (or 1 month free for every 3 months that you refered)
