    SAiNT (Admin for AudioZ) in June 2018
    posted that he doesn't like to use JDownloader because it runs on Java.
    I have been using JDownloader 2 for 1 year now.
    I understand that the Java environment can be a security weakness.
    I looked in JDownloader Help / About : and I see
    Java - Temurin - OpenJDK Runtime Environment - 1.8.0_322(32bit/x86)
    JDownloader 2 2.34.0 Build 15
    So it is using Java script. Is this safe?
    Does JDownloader 2 update the OpenJDK automatically or do I need to do it ?
    Would I be safer using " Internet Download Manager " ?
    I don't subscribe to any premium accounts. I plan on doing some big downloads in the near future, so I am seriously considering purchasing a premium account.
    Back in 2018 SAiNT (Admin for AudioZ) was posting about "LinkSnappy".
    So I would like to get a feel for what ya all think is the best file hoster to get premium account for? I will list my priorities in the file hoster I seek.
    #1. Reliability (Down Time)
    #2. Download Speed
    #3. Daily / Time / Data Limits
    #4. Price
    In a nut shell I'm looking for a file hoster that is reliable, has good download speeds, has minimal cap limits on downloading. Price is at the bottom. I don't mind paying a little extra for a good FFS. The ability to download via torrent would be a bonus also.
    What if I choose a file host that AudioZ stops using after I purchased a premium account ?
    Which is the most likely file host that AudioZ will be staying with ?
    If that scenario happened, is there an alternative site to AudioZ
    that would hopefully have links for the file hoster I had a premium account for?
    List of Questions:
    #. Is using Java environment safe ?
    #. Does JDownloader 2 update the OpenJDK automatically or do I need to do it ?
    #. Would I be safer using " Internet Download Manager " ?
    #. Which is the best file hoster to get premium account for ? (Priorities)
    #. Which is the most likely file host that AudioZ will be staying with ?


    I am sorry for so many questions, but I have a burning yearning for learning !
    Thank you very much for any recommendations / opinions / advice / page links you all provide. Matzik. Peace out.

    Java is safe. Who said it is not safe?! It is way safer than the native software you run like the DAW or random VSTs you grab.

    It is not the best programming language in 2023, but it has nothing to do with its security.

    I have had rapidgator for 5 years now.
    I think it has gone down once in that time but was fixed quickly.
    The 6 month plan is the best for 50 usd.
    No daily limit but you get 6tb total which is more than most.
    I noticed some have 100gb limit in a day which is not enough when a few big Kontakt libraries get released or a gong is wrung.
    I also get all my tv shows, movies, training videos, music, and if you want porn.
    Also it maxes out my connection which is 800 mb.

    they are all on the edge of extinction. go with RG and Internet Download Manager. although tomorrow KF will have a 50% discount.

    AudioZ must have two primary mirrors, because if one file sharing service goes down (like UL did) all the posts die.
