Mega is a file sharing service that supports end-to-end encrypted
downloads, which Kapowarr makes use of.
By default, you are limited to downloading around 5GB of files per day from Mega. There are no download speed constraints.
Mega offers free and paid accounts that come with higher limits for downloading files. Kapowarr is able to download
files using an account to take advantage of these higher limits (i.e. being able to download more than 5GB per day).
If you have a Mega account, it's advised to enter the credentials below so that Kapowarr can take advantage of it's
premium features. Also make sure to set Mega high in the service preference list, so that Kapowarr will prefer using it.

GetComics is a website that offers a vast amount of downloads
for comics. Kapowarr can search this website to find downloads for the volumes in your library. The comics can
be downloaded via multiple services. Kapowarr has built-in support for almost all these services.
When downloading directly from the servers of GetComics (instead of using an external service), the download speed
will be significantly reduced 400MB into the download. This behaviour is set up by the owner of the website, is
intentional, and is not planned to be removed.
Also, most often on Wednesday and Thursday, the site is very busy so the downloads speed goes down a lot. Preferring
external services in the service preference list is advised in order to avoid this.
