I very much appreciate those who share on this site. Especially the bootlegs, of which I seemingly cannot get enough.
But would someone please tell me what the big advantage is in uploading these files to MEGA?
I find it impossible, inconsistent and extremely irritating. I'll do without the boot rather than waste time screwing around with something so needlessly complicated.
And for a nut-case like me, that is saying quite a bit.

Thank you for your responses. My problems are encountered when I attempt to download.
I click the red 'download' box. The counter begins. Fine.
But when it indicates 100 percent of the file has been downloaded, it is nowhere to be found. I use Firefox, and occasionally there will be a pop up asking what I want to do with the file.
More often than not, there nothing. Just the indicator reading 100%.

I am using Windows XP for now and the file is nowhere. Not in Downloads, not in My Documents and definitely not in My Music.
I will look for the Mega extension Eddie Byword mentioned, but much of my frustration with MEGA comes from the fact that I was able to download disc one of a recently-posted 1989 show with no problem whatsoever, and disc two seemingly requires an entirely different procedure!
I'd except this kind of crap at work, not d/l Stones boots!
Thanks for your suggestions.

I have tried 3 times to download this, twice with Firefox and once with Safari and still cannot find the file even though it gets to 100%. Oh well.

Did you try and set your preferred download location?
Also, it's possible you might have to restart your computer for it to take effect....I've got a vague memory that for some reason the addon didn't work the first time I tried it....but then did after... I may have turned my computer off in between times...

Explorateur windows ---->menu: tools , Options des dossiers, Affichage, Afficher les dossiers et fichiers cachés etc (I don't know English item, my Windows are in French. You must see the hidden files)
after go to:
User/xxxxxxx/Appdata/ local/temp
