    PS3 Store getting faster?

    I don't know if its just me but today i downloaded the NBA 07 demo and i just couldn't believe how fast it was going. Compared to everyone else, its slow because i dont have good internet but i've started downloading at my internet's top speed, i thought Sony might have upgraded the servers.

    I noticed marginally faster download speeds when I downloaded the demo for Lemmings, but not enough to get me too excited.

    When I decided to download Cash&Guns (or what is it called) it was on the HDD quite quicky. But the blood diamond trailer(SD) did not really download very fast.
    Almost everyone will say: buy console that has games that you want, and those who say otherwise are ignorant.

    Playstation Move for the win!

    Its been speeding up for me too, maybe a lot of people have gotten all they want off of the store so they no longer take up bandwidth and the server can run faster.

    It does seem better, I downloaded the 1080p trailer for 300 and that was pretty fast.

    It still takes me a minute for 3 MB. Kinda damn slow. What kind of speeds are you getting?

    Yesterday I went to download the GTHD demo version 1.1. It downloaded all 625 MB in UNDER 5 minutes. I believe that they are plenty fast.

    That's really fast. You must have a T1 or better link surely.

    There is a MAJOR lack of demo's. I guess we have to wait in till more games come out? I dunno, I want a Lair demo though.

    Ahh, wouldn't we all, hopefully this will be fixed in a future firmware upgrade.
