First of all, for those of you who have never heard of it, [Clubbox] is a huge file-storage website, maintained by individual accounts, etc etc. (I'm assuming it's a bit like freespace.filefront.com, except more widely used?) Anyway, I've discovered recently that it is like, the Motherload for getting various Japanese tv shows, clips, music, concerts, etc etc.
The catch? It's entirely in Korean. T^T
Fortunately, if there's a will, there's a way-- and several helpful people have made some good english tutorials (with screencaps and everything) for registering with Clubbox, downloading, setting up your own Clubbox, uploading, etc etc. The ones I've just used are [here at soompi forums]. (There's still some parts that are fuzzy to me, like how exactly "Mileage" and "Quickdownloading" work; but I DO know it's better to register with ClBx and to share files, especially if you want good downloads and speeds; rather than just leeching.)
Ways in which ClBx is better than YSI: files last for 10 days, not 7; unlimited downloads for each file (as far as I can tell?) rather than 25; files can't be blocked; has a reward system for frequent users and sharers; gives you a page for keeping your uploads organized all in one place; has decent upping/DLding speeds (at least in my experience- like 30kbps up, 50kbps dl).
If you want to check out some Clubboxes that have a lot of good Arashi content, [Clubhouse Arashi] (who have been added to the Community Links,) maintain a very helpful site in that regard. (They also have some nice YSI/MegaUploads links that they share.)
Anyway~ to sort of celebrate FINALLY figuring out how the stupid thing works, (after lots of struggling and using BabelFish Translator and Googling), and also to encourage more people to join and get involved with this file-sharing service, I'll be taking the first THREE requests for any video file you like off [my list], no matter what it is or the size, and uploading them to my new Clubbox! \:3/~♥ Just comment to the post with a link to your own Clubbox (like so: "http://clubbox.co.kr/phasera" to show me you've signed-up) and your requested file.
I hope everyone has found this post helpful!

Date: 2005-08-11 09:31 pm (UTC)The thing with mileage is that if you get enough points, you can trade the mileage in for coupons that enable you to do the quick downloading thing (If I remember correctly, 500 mileage points is enough to let you get a 1gb coupon). I got about up to 300kb/s once with it. But the coupons eventually expire if you don't use them within a certain amount of time and they don't always work in making the downloads faster ... so I usually don't like bothering with it. ^^''

Date: 2005-08-12 10:50 pm (UTC)http://pdbox.co.kr/ VS. http://clubbox.co.kr/
What the heck is the difference? O_o It seems like ClBx is more widely used for some reason, but I don't know why, when they LOOK like exactly the same kind of site-- don't they?

Date: 2005-08-13 12:39 pm (UTC)In Korea, PDbox is more widely used(I assume it was made first), although Clubbox is starting to catch up. Also, you can search on PDbox for stuff you want, but you can't on Clubbox.

Date: 2005-08-13 04:35 pm (UTC)I have another question~ I visited the PDBox site specifically for one person ---> http://my.pdbox.co.kr/filebox/yejuda
I believe she is the one that encodes many many of the Japanese tv shows I download, but which I have been getting from other people instead of right from the source!
Except when I visit her PDBox page, it doesn't list any of her files for download-- even though there are numbers next to each sub-folder, it shows them all as empty! O_o I'm wondering if I need some sort of authorization somehow...?
If you could take a quick peek at that and see what's up for me I would be so, so grateful. I would really LOVE to be able to download from yejuda!
