Q: download time for Mad Men season 5?

Seems to be taking a long time...going on 2 hours now. How long should this download take? I have high-speed wireless connection and brand new MacBook Pro.

What is your network speed (www.speedtest.net)?

Each episode is around 600MB-1GB so it will take some time

I let it go on all night - 12 hours, still downloading when I woke up. That seems excessive. And my speed is good, forget exact score but tested it last month and it's very fast.

Yes, that IS very excessive to leave it to download ALL night, and it not be finished when you wake up.

Have you done the SpeedTest from: http://www.speedtest.net/ ?
If so, can you post the results ?
What type of internet connection do you have ? ADSL ?

I just downloaded by paying with my cc. (Previously I'd been trying to use an iTunes gift card.) Odd, but it downloaded immediately this time.

Thanks for the help though!
