slow downloads
 
hey I was just wondering if it should take days for me to download movies and almost just as long for songs, I'm still pretty new at this, but i've purchased what was supposed to be "top of the line" computer so any suggestions what might be the problem.

Hi sue

Yes, some sources are very busy (and/or very slow).

You can compare speeds from a fairly reliable source, like the files hosted by http://www.magnetmix.com/audio2.shtml Files from there should often download at more than 100 KB/s

It takes a while to get a sense of finding fast reliable sources, and learning when to avoid some sources.
