Why is the upload speed of megaupload so bad?

I am even using a US based server and this is the speed it gives

MU has capped their upload speed ~350KB/s for a long time mate. That's why.
Its not just you. :P

I think it's 500KB/s mate, coz i'm currently uploading with this speed.

Thats really sad...

What are the best USA based filehosts other than Filesonic,Fileserve,Hotfile and Megaupload..

Megaupload isn't a USA based filehost!
Not sure where excatly in europe but i think in Germany!

Edit: maybe the main server in USA, but hosting servers in Europe

Megaupload has servers in USA as well as Europe I think.

I tried RL, sborg, RDP, FTP .... onshore,offshore but never got more than 500KBs.

idk why
megaupload downloading speed is good

 

[ONServer]

It's possible to reach up to 100MB/s (upload speed) using megamanager or megakey.
However, no more than 500KB/s using any http based upload tool.

I just uploaded at 200kb/sec. Fastest of any file host I can get.

Edit: This file was not already on their servers. It was a custom file from my office.

It's fast if you upload something that is already on their servers.

If you upload a completely new file that was never uploaded onto MU, it will take a while to upload.
