    Are you sure you're not confusing JDownloader with something else? JD is free and open source, there is no premium JD.

    It happily integrates with various debrid services though. Like Realdebrid in your case.

    There is no premium JD2, it's just a freeware downloader, you only can go premium with your file sharing account and then add it to JD2 in its settings.
    Since JD2 has multiple options to set several connections for each file or download multipe files at once, you can reach the maximum speed
    of what your internet connection provides.

    In my case thats around 62MB/s while downloading through the browser is at 20-30MB/s.

    But one of the best features of JD2 for me is:
    You can put everything to download in the list, let it download over night, JD2 then extracts the files (if a pw is required, you can simply add it),
    deletes the archives and shuts down your PC (if you set JD to do that).

    Thank you guys. It's the first time I'm using JD2. What I saw was premium ads for Rapidgator and the like. I can't understand why I've missed this tool for so long.

    As the others already mentioned, you can integrate a hoster's premium account into JD2 so it even enters your password automatically.

    Katfile is the best because its the only hoster you can edit to give you full speed downloads. Also why are you not using adblock in 2024?

    Try uBlock Origin instead of adblock for a few days see what you think.

    Yes, but as I clearly pointed out, it takes much longer with Katfile.

    With Rapidgator sometimes I don't even have to do any puzzles, I just check the box and it's done. They also allow me to do an audio thing.

    Katfile doesn't allow audio puzzles, and if they do it's rare. And it's common to have to do 20, 30 or even more puzzles to finally move on.

    They did get better for a while since I made this post but lately theyve gone back to old ways.

    -down.fast-down.com is hands down the fastest and easiest to use filehost I have tried. It just works and works fast with JDownloader.

    hosts must also be accessible to most people and these aren't unfortunately....among all those listed above, only gofile.io actually works where I live :no:
    katfile and rapidgator with JD2 work well, period.

    Debrid services are mostly very slow (from my experience). Also there are times where some of the provided
    file sharing services just don't want to work so you have to switch to another or continue later.
    That's why I'd rather suggest to get a premium account for RG or similar.

    The last debrid service I used had a maximum of 2mb/s (download) while my connection provides up to 64MB/s.
    So using a real premium account is 32x faster on my side.

    I haven't any issues with it, when the full page popup blocks the screen just click on the left or right side of the page and it closes, no big deal works well, besides it is free.
    Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to everyone, let's make 2025 a really musically inspiring and productive year.
