What is flareGet?
flareGet is a full featured multi-threaded and multisegment download manager for Linux, Windows and Mac. It supports browser integration through addons and many more features.
Features
Dynamic File Segmentation It uses a robust in-place dynamic file segmentation algorithm to speed up the download. The download is split into segments to increase the speed.
Enhanced Browser Integration It integrates with all the browsers to replace their default download manager and start the download by itself.
Intelligent File Management It uses an intelligent file management system to automatically categorize your files based on their extensions. All the downloads are grouped in different folders as per their categories.
Resume Support It can resume unfinished downloads even on power failures or system crash. It also automatically retries when a segment or download fails. Currently there is no resume support for FTP downloads
Multi-Protocol Support It supports HTTP, HTTPS and FTP protocols to let you download files from internet. It also has full Metalink support.
Mirror Support It supports segmented download of a file from multiple mirror sites with automatic link checking of expired URLs.
Speed Limits You can limit the download speed to prevent usage of whole bandwidth.
Add or Remove Segments You can add or remove download segments dynamically without interrupting the download.
Limit Downloads You can limit the number of simultaneous downloads, when one download ends, another starts automatically.
Youtube Grabber One click flash video download from Youtube is supported for all the browsers.
Smart Scheduler You can easily schedule flareGet to download files automatically. It allows you to start and pause downloading files at the set time.
Clipboard Monitoring No need to copy paste your download links, it monitors your clipboard.
Batch Downloads You can simply import urls from a text file (each link in separate line) or an html file and download them all.
Comments and Reviews
No multithreading support... you have to pay Only allows 10 downloads per day... otherwise they want more money.
Bottom line, stick to uget if you use linux. it's free!
You are allowed to use the multi-threading feature for just 30 days. After that, you will have to purchase.
