why you need to pay to get files - ABA DSS

shadow209califa · June 8th, 2009

i was wondering why you have to pay to get files? I been getting all my files for free for more than a 1 year and 1/2 from different sites and they are all free but lately they have been disapearing and why you guys charge? this is crazy

They disappear because sites like these take money to run. If all sites were free, what would keep them up? A large site like this runs on many servers, these servers require maintenance, updating and special up keep. The small fee is not for the files, its to keep this site up and running. We also try to test all files before posting to ensure they work, and none have viruses or bugs. Ask our other members about ABA, I think you will be surprised by the response you get...

Hey There,

Thanks for your excellent question, and I have no hesitation in providing you with an answer:

As you are likely aware, many FTA sites frequently lock down their systems during dual provider ECM's, this is often done in large part because the underpowered, shared hosting plan they operate their site on either can't, won't or is simply incapable of handling the load/demand being made upon it.

Systems who solely rely on, or, perhaps over rely on the 'Google Ad' model or Sponsors as their primary (or perhaps even their only source) of revenue are often not funded well enough to be able to service the traffic when their visitors need them the most.

Investments in Load balancers, Redundant servers and a litany of other hardware allow us to keep our system open and functional at 'peak' times (when many others are down).

The revenue component from membership on our system helps us to better serve both our sites visitors and our members.

Its simply a different revenue model, one that allows for re-investment and expansion on an as needed basis.

I hope that provides you with some added insight.

That's what I was going to say!!!!! Dang CG, you're stealing my thoughts again, LOL

Except I would have put it like this: Get over it, pay up already.
There I feel better.
I was really gonna say "Why you need to cry over it??". But my Customer Service minded mind thought better of it.

There's nothing crazy about it, besides some of the characters lurking on the forums.

I have to agree with everyone, plus nothing ever is free you pay one way or another.

Files? We can get files here???

**painterguy14** · June 8th, 2009

Take a look around & you will see why this site is better than the rest. Besides not worrying about getting a bad file here we have some of the best moderators, site helpers & veterans members here always willing to give free advise whenever needed.

In the download section, for every receiver. You didn't know that?

Have you ever been a member of a club of like minded friends? If you like the club you don't mind paying dues, because you get much more out of it than the small dues. I know that whenever I have a problem with my motor, receiver lnb or whatever, I can hop on here and get a good knowledgeable response from not just one, but several friends. I have no regrets in paying small dues for this kind of fraternity.

Who cares?? Don't know. Ours are Abadss certified tested and true.

**jose2001** · June 9th, 2009

lake i always say if you whant clean files you have to pay thats all

**creativegenius** · June 9th, 2009

All of the files on this system are tested before they are made available. This can and does take extra time ... being first if it risks your receiver isn't a good thing.

Free sites supported by the fta manufactures, as long as you do things there way. We have no loyalty to any receiver, and say and do as we wish. We don't fill you with bullchit about any receiver, only the truth.

Can't believe he is complaining about such a small charge. Have you been out to eat lately?? All Hail the Programmers and Moderators. Never have I gotten so much for so little.
