iTunes download extremely slow

[Packersfan27]

Hi,

I have been having this weird problem with itunes. I am trying to download the Boise state v Oklahoma bowl game. It is a pretty big download (2.16 GB) but Ive downloaded big files before with out problems. It also only seems to be this file because I was also downloading some Family Guy episodes at the same time and they were down loaded normal (like 1 MB a second). The fiesta bowl game is going about 1 KB a second. I left it all night and sometime during the night it got to around 40 MB and failed at err-3253 and it said it is resetting the connection. It is still going that slow though and is currently at 47 MB.

Help me please

All you can do is keep trying. There is nothing anyone here can help you with.

Well, I AM glad to hear that it's not just me. I have been trying to download a one hour television show (ABC show) and it's been downloading for 4 hours already and says that it needs 4 more hours. I am on the highest speed connection on our cable system. Just insane.

I just purchased five more TV show seasons and again, the downloads are pretty slow. It's going at about .5MB per second and normally I get about 1MB per second on my cable connection.

At this rate, my downloads will finish by morning.
