    With less than a week to go before Mega is launched, Kim Dotom's successor to Megaupload, the flamboyant entrepreneur has released an image of the new service via Twitter.

    Megaupload was shut down dramatically in January 2012 by the U.S. Department of Justice for alleged copyright infringement, prompting a wave of other download sites to either shut down or restrict their services.

    From this we now know some important features of Mega. Free Mega accounts will get 50 GB of storage, putting it way ahead of Dropbox's free 2GB, Google Drive's 5GB and Skydrive's 7GB.

    One of Megaupload's big problems was only being able to download one file at a time. Mega has the ability to upload and download up to six files at the same time. This should make the service much more practical as a way to manage your files in the cloud.


    Another very interesting feature is the option to skip identical files uploaded by other users, which could save you lots of time, and of course space in your account. You can also deactivate the SSL protocols, which according to Mega should increase transfer speeds without affecting your security.

    It would seem that even though his site might be under more scrutiny it has been a successful launch albeit that the free storage offer is low and his prices for premium accounts relatively high.

    I also believe access to the site Hidden Content is limited to certain browsers.

    There's quite a good post over on Gizmodo about this, they seemed quite impressed with the speed and usability of the site (though that might change when everyone can access it).

    Should be interesting to see if this becomes the file sharing site of choice or not.
