nsane.down and Softpedia are the most updated and reliable download portal and I use them very often, sometimes more than 5 times a day. :)

MajorGeeks & FileHippo are also very good because of their fast download servers, useful when downloading from the original website is not possible, like downloading Realtek Audio Drivers due to very low FTP speed from original website. ;)

CNet was also good, before they implemented their custom installer, but now, it's full of AdWare and other unnecessary bundles with softwares. ;)

Top 5 for Me :)

1. Softpedia (Mother of all download portals)

2. Majorgeeks (To download softwares from their fast servers)

3. Softexia (Sometime Nsaners beat them but they list more software)

4. Nsanedown (Updates very fast but not too many softwares listed)

5. Filehippo (To old versioins)

None of those 9 mentioned - they all break the news a bit late (by my standards.)

The Russians & the Chinese rule this particular arena, by far.

80% of things that I need, I get it from nsane and the rest dcs18 provides me. :naughty:

For the most part, I download from the authors' site to the extent possible, except for when they don't host the file(s) themselves. In that case, I prefer MajorGeeks, Filehippo etc. But I also D/L from Softpedia, Softexia etc. I download patches etc. from nsane where available. Otherwise, from trusted/VIP uploaders on TPB etc. :)

CNet (Download.com) used to be a favorite many moons ago, but that was before they introduced their own installer and started pushing through bloatware. Now I avoid that site (for downloads at least) like the plague. :(
