1) How To Download From DLP
There are several ways you can get the files you want from here!
For music albums:
Either click on the links next to the "release date" of the album and follow the instructions on those sites!

Usually you have to write a 3-digit code into a box and wait a bit until the download link appears, but as all you can download from here is for FREE.. please bear with it ;)
If you just want one song from a specific album, click on "DL (DownLoad)" next to the song!

NOTE ON INDIVIDUAL (Sharebee) DOWNLOAD LINKS!!!:
So we've made a poll asking for your opinions.. click here for results.. and the outcome was NO!
So Sharebee links will only be made VOLUNTARILY from now on.. exceptions are links for the Korean Top 100 posts ;)


As for the hardsub MVs:
They'll be usually uploaded to 2 several filesharing hosts by me (JenEm).. the links can be found at the end of each Music MV right under the youtube links :P

2) I've downloaded a .rar file / _DLP file, what now?
You need to extract the .rar file first, before you can see the actual folder with the files! Here's a useful freeware program to do so => WinRar

First install the program... then right click on the .rar file you've downloaded and choose "extract here" or "extract to /Your specific folder)"

--------------

[Update August 2010]
So I came up with the idea of deleting the file extensions and replacing those with _DLP (which stands for DL Paradise).. in hope that our uploads won't be deleted that fast anymore on MediaFire!!.. so if you downloaded such a file..
just rename the file by replacing _DLP with .rar (for music!!!).. after that extract with WinRar as usual ;)
[for videos, replace _DLP with .avi]


3) Why does it lead to nowhere when I click on a link?
It'll lead to nowhere as there hasn't been uploaded anything yet! Please people... we have a life too.. be patient :P

Usually you can check if a link contains anything by putting the mouse over the link and checking your "status bar" at the bottom of your browser!

4) I can't download the "full album", please upload the individual songs to sharebee
Sure, but give us some time to do so!
If you can't wait.. just download the full album ;)

Update January 2010:
Please read the red note above or click here => 1) How To Download From DLP

5) Am I allowed to re-post downloading links from DLP?
Of course! More downloads = links will stay alive longer!
But please remember to link back to our blog by adding the following as credits!!!
=> Credits to http://dlparadise.blogspot.com

6) What does [+/-] mean?
[+/-] is a code to make something "Peek-a-boo"! So basically.. if you click on links with [+/-] it'll expand.. if you click again.. it'll decrease again ;)
quite handy to save some space in long posts ;)

7) Page Not Found? Why can't I access?
This will happen if someone is updating the posts (i.e. post new albums, etc.)
Please come back later! Don't panic :P

8) Why can't I play the hardsubbed music videos?
As for my (JenEm) hardsub MVs.. I use the Xvid codec to encode my videos.
If you can't play them.. try installing Xvid on your system! If it still doesn't work, try also installing the CCCP Codec

My favorite and recommended media player is Media Player Classic as you can get informations of the files by clicking on "File -> Properties -> Details (Tab)"

9) I've downloaded one of the Hardsubbed MVs, can I re-upload it to streaming sites?
For my (JenEm's) Hardsubbed MVs:
OMG... guys... the only rule I had for my videos was to NOT RE-UPLOAD THEM TO YOUTUBE! But some people just can't follow this.. I'm okay with those videos which are already uploaded (as long as you credit ME, the SONG TRANSLATORS and http://dlparadise.blogspot.com)... you're allowed to upload them to other sites like veoh, dailymotion or wherever.. though, DON'T forget about the credits! Is this too much to ask? I get really pissed.. sorry >.<

Other Hardsubbed MVs (Missl89, Hobielover, On The Run Fansubs, ShowFanSubs):
Please follow their rules

10) Can't find what you want? Use this for help!
I've added a search box in here (which apparently doesn't work anymore.. because of a problem on blogger.com.. hope they'll fix it soon)

But a nice help to find files in here is our label function!
Check it out in the sidebar right under the Search Box :P

11) I would like to request something, how should I do it?
For Albums & Lyrics:
Glad you like it that much around here! There's a category called "Requests" in the navigation bar right under the banner of our blog! Please use the forms to request what you want!

Though.. for now the forms are disabled.. we're simply too little active members around here!

(05/07/10)
Request are open ;)

If you want to have faster releases... feel free to join us

For RAW (Unsubbed) MVs:
We've decided to NOT upload anymore RAW videos in here simply because you can find them all around the net already!

But I've provided links to some nice sources in the Video Index Page

For Hardsubbed MVs by JenEm:
Please post your request in the shoutbox and I'll reconsider doing it as long as there's a HQ version of the video available and a proper english translation!
and check my to-do-list by clicking the medium turquoise link right under the "Updates Scroller" first before doing so!

12) About re-uploading files...
(05/06/09)
I've made a form for that.. but seems that most people were using it in a wrong way!
Will remove it now! Please don't ask us for re-uploads if at least 1 download link for the file is still working.. If you can't download from that site.. maybe try a proxy site to solve your problem ;)
Anyways... sharebee links won't be re-uploaded as long as 2 download links are still working!

Now to requesting links.. either make a comment in the right post or leave us a message in the shoutbox.. no guarantee that your request will be fulfilled immediately though, please be patient!!

13) Does anyone know where I can buy asian cds?
Yep, YesAsia would be a nice choice!
We'll be adding links to their products in every album post soon!
