Enable multiple file downloads from file manager

The UI exists for this, but it currently only downloads a single file. We are working on fixing this.

    well I would like to be able to download something at present nothing works for me, I only have 10 days left of premium use after 14 years of good service. I shall be deleting my account if this is not fixed before then. I have had this problem for over a month now. I am aware there have been problems since the new site came on line, but at least I could access my files from the old site but now I cant even do this. The problems have got worse not better this year.

    I downloaded a short song, then tried to download another, but was told I had to wait. I'm Premium. WHat's up?

    The bot said: It sounds like you're encountering a download limit even though you're a Premium user. While Premium accounts offer unlimited download speed and no waiting times for downloads, there is a daily transfer limit of 100 transfers and a 10-second cooldown between transfers. This cooldown is likely what you're experiencing. You should be able to download another file after waiting for 10 seconds. If you believe this isn't the case or you're experiencing something different, please let me know!

    And I replied: I tried downloading the same song that it wouldn't let me download a few minutes ago, but got the same result: "Download Temporarily Unavailable

    Please wait before downloading another file

    Please contact support if you require further assistance."

    And it said: I understand your frustration. Even as a Premium user, there are still some system limitations in place to ensure service quality.

    Here's what might be happening:

    • Daily Transfer Limit: Premium accounts have a daily limit of 100 transfers within a 24-hour period. If you've exceeded this, you'll need to wait for it to reset.

    • Transfer Cooldown: There's a 10-second cooldown between transfers. If you're trying to download files in quick succession, you'll see this message.


    When I came to THIS page, I saw “The UI exists for this, but it currently only downloads a single file. We are working on fixing this.” (dated 12 days ago!) In all fairness, it doesn’t sound like it’s rocket science. And if I really CAN’T download two diff songs 5 minutes apart, maybe you should bring back the old system until you get this one fixed!
    My Premium membership expires in 68 days. Please fix this, so I don’t have to start looking for a fully-working service. (And if you really are going to have Premium members max out at 100 files a day, wouldn’t it make more sense to base the limit on AMOUNT of data transferred, instead of kicking me off after 100 five-second sound effect or music “stab” elements? Maybe you need better Beta testers!! Just sayin’!
