Q: Internet Speed and downloading...

Is a download speed of 1105 kbps and an upload speed of 325 kbps too slow to download something from the itunes store?

I'm trying to download a movie from the Itunes store and its only downloaded a small fraction of the movie and its taken days to download that.
