Cons
Con Quit on Download Completion Intrusive
When downloads complete a counter begins that counts down from 30. There's no way to make this counter to go away except to toggle the feature off (to not quit on completion of downloads).
Con Not Free
Con Bad or absent browser and clipboard monitoring, bad interface, limited settings
Cannot get the download link by itself in most cases, and it needs the link to be entered manually (not even clipboard monitoring worked). Changing the theme can make it unusable, settings are very limited compared to concurrent programs.
Con Queue
Schedule does not work
