When did you try this? We currently send links to download Tor Browser
from three providers: Dropbox, Google Drive, and Github*. As Griffin
said, finding new providers is not an easy task, and we are constantly
looking for new options (we would love to hear more ideas!)

Also, you can get Tor Browser localized for the following languages
(sending "linux", "osx" or "windows" in the body of the message):

  Farsi: gettor+fa at torproject.org
  Chinese: gettor+zh at torproject.org
  Turkish: gettor+tr at torproject.org
  English (default): gettor at torproject.org

(Please note that the email content has not been translated yet.)

There are various changes done in GetTor during the past months. We will
soon announce all the new features, so stay tuned!

* Although the links sent have 'github.com' in the URL, the actual
download is performed from amazon servers.
