Megarotic/Megaporn is not free for downloads, at least from Germany.

I can't get a free account when I'm located in Germany, I must buy a premium account for 9.99€ per month.

Or am I just too stupid to get a free account? Confused
Do other German user have the same problem?


If Megarotic/Megaporn is not free, it shouldn't be on the 'permitted file hosts list', should it?

You can use ME/MP in conjunction with the program jdownloader:

Works fine and you don't need a premium.
ME/MP isn't accessible from Germany, though I don't know why.

Thank you for the link, Sir Ruffy Very Happy

I will try that when I find the next ME/MP link.


But why is ME/MP not accessible from Germany?
That's a good question.
Anyone know the answer? Question


I know that the owner of Megarotic/Megaporn and Megaupload are German, at least one of them (the same with Rapidshare, the owner are German too).

Megaupload Limited, the company which owns ME/MP and Megaupload, is officially based in Hong Kong, though only for legal and tax reasons, I guess. They don't operate in Hong Kong.

I'm not so sure where the Mega*** servers are located. I read somewhere the servers are located in the USA. Can somebody confirm that?

Still no reason for not being accessible from Germany... Confused

Have tried to get an answer form the support and sent them several emails, no reply so far.

This is typical for companies which provide a questionable legal service.
They simply don't answer your questions.

I'm sure they won't tell you who's the owner of the site neither.

Do you know this story:
(only in German, sorry)

Kimble aka Kim Schmitz: Mit Megaupload wieder im Geschäft

Deleted the link (rule no. 7, no links to other boards).

Yeah, know that story.

But maybe they (MP) have had problems with age verification and access to that streaming adult site, therefore they canceled access to it from Germany.

Sorry for breaking the rules. Embarassed
I thought only hotlinks were prohibited. That's why I used the code function...

BTT:
I thought about the age verification too. But this law affects only German sites. MP/ME are not German sites, are they?

Other porn sites and streaming sites from outside of Germany doesn't seem to have a problem with this...

Don't know it for sure, I'm only guessing, but that's the only single reason, why it isn't accessible from Germany.

I've sent them another email, but I doubt, that they will answer.


But as long as it works with jdownloader I don't care (tested right now).
