    Exclamation Archive.org slow download speed

    Has anyone else noticed a extreme slow down to download speeds on Archive.org. We have been hosting our podcasts on there for some time and it seems like the last few weeks they went from 1-2 mbps download speeds to about 50-100kbps.

    I know there isn't much that can be done because its a free service but its really slow ....

    Contact them and explain your problem. It doesn't matter about free or paid, remember, they make their own terms.

    So seems like my complaining on twitter got enough people to complain about the same issue. I just tested the download speeds and im getting around 5mbps on all our videos

    I am a big fan of DTNS and Cordkillers and can barely download the show anymore. I have to watch it on youtube.

    I get the DTNS and Cordkillers audio feeds and haven't noticed a problem, but the Night Attack video download took from yesterday afternoon until this morning. I'd suspect they're throttling video downloads pretty heavily.

    not only is it the video but audio as well. Its taking some people 10 min to download my audio podcast. It shouldn't take more than 1 min
