FreeRapid Downloader

Ever heard of FreeRapid Downloader? It’s a web based tool sometimes called Vity or Rapidyrio that lets you grab music and videos straight to your computer. You can pull files from regular FTP sources or online services like Facebook, FileZilla, or Yahoo. But here’s the catch: while it sounds handy, it’s also gained a pretty shady reputation. A lot of users have reported running into spyware and adware bundled with the software. Some even say they ended up spending money on cleanup tools when FreeRapid Downloader could’ve done the job for free.

One of the cool things about this downloader is that it works on both Windows and Mac. It supports high definition files and claims to deliver fast downloads even for large files. It’s also compatible with a bunch of file sharing platforms like MegaSpace, Usenet, FileZilla, FlexiMusic Video, and Yahoo! Video.

So what does it actually do? For starters, it offers unlimited connections, a built in scheduler, and tools to remove spyware and adware. There’s also support for video and audio conversion, a simple interface, and no annoying pop ups or viruses at least in theory. Plus, you get extras like live chat, member forums, and even a sync engine to manage your downloads automatically. Oh, and there’s a free trial so you can test it out before committing. Just be careful while it promises a lot, its track record has left some users pretty frustrated.
