At the risk of getting my post trashed because it is [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], I like to thank you Catymag for taking the time and effort to give such a detailed explanation of the situation. I had no idea about the extent of the consequences the close-down of the recent FBI action on Megaupload had on the community. And with me, probably many others as well. Your post above makes it clear and it is now much easier to understand why downloads are not as trouble-free anymore as we were used to. Thank you!

Just a suggestion: maybe a link to [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] (click link) in the first post of each new map thread would be an idea.
