File Factory issues

Does anyone know why for some links, the files automatically download in the unlimited/fast category, while sometimes it sends you to the site for the slow download?

I have a free account and there is no option to allow direct downloads, that i can see. Im assuming the uploader would need a premium account to allow direct, full speed downloads.

Each premium FileFactory account has something called TrafficShare.

Each member is allocated an amount of bandwidth a month where speed is full. When that bandwidth runs out, the speed reverts to free user speed.

It auto renews at the beginning of the month. So if something in particular is slow for you, try downloading it then.

If it happens now, then the user you are downloading from has not exceeded that TrafficShare limit.

Now for the official line:

As a FileFactory Premium member, you have 100GB of TrafficShare Data included which you can use to share files each month.

When all available TrafficShare Data is used then your downloads revert to the free system.

Hope that helps explain?
