Megaupload copy files to a folder

[Mutikasa]

Hi,
when I post link on forum I usually make copy of the file for backup, in another folder. But it seems that is doesn't work that way in megaupload. It is same file with same share link and when I delete backup the original is also deleted!
That is insane, why is it called copy then? Is it some mistake?

There is no mistake,
megauplaod uses checksum
and if you upload one file that is identical as someonelses file,
they only keep one file.

so basically they just make a link for that file that you are copying but its still the same file...

hope this helps
