    This program is the best because it has preview and DL of ZIP files. No other D manager can do that. Yes FG is better in everything else but lacks something very important like this feature. This is why this program deserves 5/5!

    I purchased Mass Downloader in 2002 for $20. The program is still being improved, it still costs $20 and I am still getting free upgrades. Now that's about as close to being freeware as a supported shareware program can get.

    And by the way, I still prefer Mass Downloader over all of the programs I have tested between then and now.

    I tested 6 download managers, including Orbitdownloader, Download Accelerator Plus, Free Download Manager, FlashGet, Internet Download Manager and this Mass Downloader, and this one was the best: it could download all from the trickiest sites and links, that many of the others could not get. This is the best download manager i have used, and i purchased the license, -the price is affordable.

    I think that the purpose of rating programs here is not about being generous or not (see the review below), but the rating should be based of how well the programs work and how good they feel. There's no sense to give a poor rating to the program just because it's shareware.

    Why anyone would pay for something like this when there are apps like FlashGet and FreeDownloadManager, which are FREE and FULLY feature functional! Sry, but I have to give it a 1. Not in a generous mood today I guess... :S

    Does the job, but only as good as some freeware programs. Lacks some options that other programs like getright and download accelerator plus have, but I don't much like either one of those anyway because they're too cumbersome. Overall it's worth a try. This will suit the needs of most downloaders.
