It could be, as I said, that the games site is overloaded with people downloading; or the network is busy with people downloading stuff like mad.
Can we sort this Mb/MB thing out please?

Hi,
As I said, I'm on a 20Mb line, 20Mbits/s (well up to anyway). The downloads experienced from the virgin games site during checks with Virgin support were 1Mbits/s each for the three concurrent downloads. checking over the past few days has shown lesser speeds, typically the 173kbits/s - 194kbits/s for the same. The speeds have been around the same at Sunday morning as they are this evening.
I hope this has answered your questions.
