Rapidshare CEO Alexandra Zwingli said while speaking with TorrentFreak: “We can confirm that we have removed all download limits for free users, which is part of a new strategy. Even though the limit was initially introduced to deter piracy, we have since then come to realize that there are more efficient counter measures. Further details will be announced towards the end of 2012.”

What the heck is a Rapidshare? Legitimate question. I know jack about cloud hosting, mostly because I don't think it's as reliable as my anal habits of making a dozen copies on various formats.
