Premium users will also now have more flexibility regarding the
download volume, now they are able to download a maximum of 10 gigabyte
per day and can be "saved" now to a maximum of 50 Gigabyte. As a
consequence, the volume that was not used is transferred to the
following day automatically, up to a maximum of 50 gigabyte, Also,
earlier Premium and Collector's Accounts were credited a RapidPoints
when a file was downloaded by a Free User but From now, Premium
Downloads can generate up to 255 additional RapidPoints per day. Those
extra points will be displayed in the account overview in the Premium
or Collector's Zone.Once a day, the extra points will be added to the
Premium or Collector's Account's RapidPoints balance and the extra
points counter will be reset to zero.
