Q: why is this iTunes movie downloading taking over 3 hours already?

-- and saying 25 MORE hours until download is complete? Is there a way to speed up the process? Is it my laptop that is the problem? We have broadband so that shouldn't be the problem. Thank you!

MacBook, iOS 5.1.1

    This is ridiculous...

     

    I have BT Infinity 2 Fibre Optic Broadband with over 40Mbs download speed,

    I have closed all internet accessing applications ie. Safari, Mail

    and yet over 3 hours to download a single movie.

     

    Come on Apple what's going on? Are you a victim of your own success?
