Most people are not going to download 30 GB in a day. I have a 3 MBit connection, I know I know....it is not much....anyway, and I get a max of 32 GB per day. That is getting full speed for the entire 24 hours.
Even with a limit of 30 GB it would only take a week to download the site based off of your quote of the site size.
The only reason for a limit this size is not to limit the users, but to prevent a single user account being used by a group of people. Password hacking sites frequently have nicer sites like this.
Besides, even with a 20 MBit connection you would have to sit there for like 4 hours while it downloaded because the site rotates the download links. Your not going to put 30 GB worth of downloads in queue and leave.
Sorry, I dont mean to sound like I am busting your balls here. I am just trying to say that of all the download limits this is definitely one of the better ones. And thank God for no DRM!

30GB a day is reasonable.

Agreed. I do not like the idea of download limits, but I also do not like the idea of me having to pay more for my porn because others feel their shit dont stink and they should not have to pay at all. Because of this I am compelled be understanding and accepting of a 30 GB limit.
Hell...many ISPs do not allow 30 GB per month.

I hate quotas, thus the reason I can't get rid of Comcast fast enough.

Yeah, I think so, too, considering how I just finished downloading the entire website in 2 weeks with 2 weeks left on my membership. :) I just wish they mentioned the 30GB a day somewhere BEFORE I got banned. It wasn't a big deal though. I just emailed them and they reactivated my membership right away, which was REALLY nice customer service.
I did the math. 30GB a day is 348 KB/s constant download. I'd set it to 345 KB/s just to be safe since I noticed Free Download Manager can jump a little. 345 KB/s is about a 3mbps connection give or take so most people won't even know about my problem, which is why I guess they don't mention the 30GB a day limit.
I don't mind the limit especially since they allow you to use stuff like Free Download Manager to help you download the entire site. Some websites use a bunch of java so you can't use a download manager, and I'm really, REALLY happy that Sapphic Erotica allows the use of download managers.
I just wanted to mention the 30GB limit so no one gets temporarily banned in the middle of the night when customer support isn't working and have to wait a whole day before they can download again.

30 gigs sounds 100% better then other limits I have had hassle with.

My ISP has limitless downloading, but if I downloaded 30GB/day (or more) they'd probably dump me!

Mine has not so far. I am coming up onto a year of downloading about 32 GB per day. Although, they recently were bought out by another company. So I will have to see if this other company wants to make any changes on how this is handled.
I download about 900 GB per month from home, and thus far have received no threatening calls or emails from them. Hell, recently I had issues with the line to my house and they were prompt about fixing it....they could have easily dragged their feet on it.

I hardly call this a limit. Rather it is more of a way to keep their servers from falling of the wall when user names and passwords get shared or hacked.
We have all dealt with our share of hideous limits. It always makes me wonder about the competence of a site who has a 500 MB limit and videos that are 600 MB and advertise having HD porn. :)

Thanks for heads up, but I think the most I've ever downloaded in a day is just about 12 Gigs, so I may give this site a try.
