 * Delete - Fails WP:ORG, and reads quite like a promotional page. Bigger digger (talk) 18:18, 9 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep - very notable website. Has many non-trivial publications about it (as references in the article). Passes both WP:GNG and WP:WEB. --Stickee (talk)  03:43, 11 September 2010 (UTC)


 * All the "references" is very questionable: CrunchBase (#1) and AboutUs.org (#2) is Wiki; PCWorld (#3) has only one paragraph (trivial); Techie Buzz (#4) is a press release from 4shared; comScore (#5) has just a ranking; compete.com (#6 & #8) is questionable website statistics; #7 is the DMCA why?; #8 is a website with nothing about the subject. d'oh! talk 10:39, 11 September 2010 (UTC)
