Why does everyone use Rapidshare?

[Link9228]

I have one at all three of those. I personally can't stand megaupload or rapidshare.

I like being able to hotlink stuff, but there's really no free way to do that, that I know of. Skydrive is definitely awesome. You know the speeds are top notch since it's Microsoft, and 25 gigs for free allows for a small hard drive backup.
