Just a whinge and a bit of praise.
Downloads from YAHOO are a joke,When they do work the speed is crap
0.1 kbs up to ...a little bit faster.
On the other hand Come2store is far better, decent speeds and far better reliability.
I am really glad to see that the latest uploads are on Come2store.
Thanks.
Whinge over.

Well, our purpose is to keep old games available for long period of time and YBC does that.....whereas upping stuff on a fast host which deletes them in a week is not what we want.
The slow speed occurs when a game is first posted and many are trying to get it. After awhile speed will go back up.....so just have patience.

YBC has always been a favorite storage method of mine... I just with BCUP was still around/working. Made uploading so easy.

If you don´t have the time to wait for your downloads, buy the Games!

Actually it's meant for testing only.. so they should buy the games in any case - whether they downloaded them first or not!
