Xunlei (迅雷)’s Guangya Cloud Drive (光鸭云盘) to Launch April 20, Promises No‑Login Downloads and Free 2TB

Launch and corporate setup

Xunlei (迅雷) announced that its new cloud storage product, Guangya Cloud Drive (光鸭云盘), will open public registration on April 20 and, it has been reported that, all users can unlock a "permanently free 2TB" storage tier. The service is reportedly provided by Shenzhen Guangshanyun Technology Co., Ltd. (深圳市光闪云科技有限公司), described in press materials as a wholly owned "grandchild" subsidiary of Xunlei and reportedly established in 2025.

Features, channels and limits

The product is being promoted on speed and convenience: it has been reported that Guangya supports "no‑login" one‑click downloads for files under 100MB, no speed limits on direct‑link sharing, single file uploads up to 100GB, and bulk transfers of up to one million files. It reportedly accepts batch cloud adds from magnet, ed2k, Xunlei links, http(s) and more, offers 4K playback with up to 5x speed and subtitle/audio track switching, and opens direct interfaces to third‑party apps (IT Home links the official site at guangyapan.com). Web and Android clients (already listed on OPPO App Store and Tencent’s Yingyongbao) will launch first; iOS and PC clients are in development. VIP tiers are said to expand capacity up to 500TB.

Context and potential concerns

Xunlei is best known in China for download acceleration and peer‑to‑peer tools — services that can move large amounts of content quickly. Free, no‑login downloads and broad protocol support raise obvious questions: how will the service police copyright infringement, and how will it meet China’s tightened data‑security and content‑management rules? In the current geopolitical climate, cross‑border data flows and export controls are also sensitive; providers operating at scale may face additional compliance and commercial constraints outside China. It has been reported that Guangya is already integrating with third‑party players such as NetEase Popcorn and Vidhub, but regulators and rights holders will likely watch uptake closely.
