Mega (successor to Megaupload) has a different and innovative way of the other download site. Usually, download sites send the file and the download is done in the browser, but mega.nz downloads the Base64 file and merges everything in the browser. Could someone explain in detail how does it work? Thank you from now on

The mega.conz. uses the filesystem API (Starting from google Chrome 23, but not restricted only to Chrome) which basically writes in a restricted section on your local filesystem

Appdata Local Google Chrome User Data Default File System\

What is Filesystem API: is a file system solution for the web. Developers can store large objects in a restricted area part of the user’s file system and link directly to them via URL. Although Chrome and Opera are the only browsers that currently implement the feature, their standardization is ongoing. Source:
