In Response To: Nothing is free (Steve Levinson)

True, but File Planet is just about the worst of the free stuff. Also, there's no way around it. Almost everything I try and download is run off of fileplanet, which usually means I can't download it. More often than not, It can't even find the file I'm looking for. And that's if it's working at all.
I don't know if it still uses it, but PlanetUnreal switched a lot of its stuff to its own filering, which was so much better. It had five or more mirrors for most files, and they all worked.
Fileplanet wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't so goddamn huge. They carry most mainstream downloads. Either it's so big they can't maintain it, or they just don't give a shit.
