I had never read Hacker Monthly. I will now probably subscribe.

Why do you say that? Mediafire is usually my first choice too, but megaupload is a close second (mostly since you can use tessaract on the captcha, either manually or via jdownloader/plowshare) with all the ReCaptcha sites (filesonic/fileshare/wupload...) trailing behind.

They're just distasteful and annoying. Check out Kim Kardashian hanging out on their home page. They make you wait for a download. And I've had problems with downloads always stopping at the same point no matter how many times I tried.

At the risk of appearing to be a fool, I can suggest that if you are doing enough DLing that the wait is a problem for you, you might want to go the Premium route. I'm an anime buff (as well as other stuff), and have a yearly subscription with them and with Fileserve. Blistering fast DLs, no waits or ads, YMMV...

Nah, I don't visit Mega more than once a month or so. As a UI/UX designer it's just something that really bothers me

You can use %03d instead of %s and the number will be zero padded to 3 digits.

also, range(1,20) rather than needing i+1 throughout your code

Thanks for the tips. I get better at Python every day.

Everything is on S3 now (but thanks anyway).

the official links are still very, very slow to respond. These are much faster.
