Download-Methods
Newbees don`t have to read the following chapter. Just click Direct Download in your recording List.
Only for those interested in techniqual details and costs for OTR:
Most used download method at the moment is:
1. DirectDownload.
+ its very easy and fast. User need no additional software.
- it is expensive for OTR (please click banners).
- when more than 200 users download same time, speed can slow down. (Check here the current traffic).
!! Read about Download-Rules and Happy-Hour. !!
Use Download-Manager to avoid broken Downloads:
flashget or getright is recommended. Download with Firefox-Browser + FlashGot-Extension works well too.
(Note: FDM was reported to catch only PHP files). Others: truedownloader
2. Emule Download: Advantages: Emule file sharing saves traffic for OTR and files are available for you a long time, even after deleted on our download servers (~15-25 days). -> Emule-Info
2b: Torrent-Downloads:
Advantage: Highest Speed, works best for very new and popular files. If you have a Torrent-Client installed, check the Tracker.
3. Direct Download for 20ct/movie
if you would like to create an account in a very good micropayment system (www.microdollar.org), you can pay 20ct for each video and you have a guaranteed download with good speed and donated the traffic costs within a single click. You can load your MD-account by creditcard, paypal, phone etc... We say thank you, if you use that way, you help us to pay our download traffic bill.

Summary: As an expert you will find out, that bittorrent-downloads (even emule!) are sometimes faster and emule is available, even when our download server crashes.
