Rapidshare speed (download)

"ok folks, the strange Rapidshare download times make sense now. They've been making some changes, and now have a new website layout. I tried to download without registering first, and the estimated time went straight up to 10 hours - then I decided to register (it's free as long as you pick the smallest option, 10GB) and downloaded this file (435MB) in under 2 minutes".

(Thank you, Alan)
