As said above, I suspect it's got to be something on your end or the ISP. I just tried a couple of re-downloads of recent releases and they were all feeding at around 1.4 Mb/sec. (through a cable modem, router and using IE11)

tried again - still not working for any Big Finish download (and I don't want to download anything else) Some web-pages are reluctant to load (like bleedding cool) suggesting it may be an issue with internet or wi-fi or something like that. I got Horror of Hy-Brasil okay 2 or 3 weeks ago, but last weekend and this, when I try to download it fails to start to download. If I cancel and retry, it starts but soon comes to a dead stop. Does anyone know of any likely causes and/or solutions? I would call your ISP support team, and see if they can work out the issue for you.

It looks like the Big Finish forum archives are gone from the Big Finish website. Or at least having a glitch. The link to the page gives a 404.
Too bad. I was still referring to those old posts from time to time.

Well all the sites they announce there are official. A lot of times companies won't endorse unofficial sites.

Well, it was natural that the forum-ites had to go somewhere, right?

I think that's an old page, no? The text is the announcement they made when they originally closed down the forum. The way it's worded is certainly not relevant to a forum that has been closed for posting for over a year, as no moderation would have been necessary over the past year, so much time after it closed. How did you even find that page? I don't see a link to it on the BF site. The actual web address of the forum that I have kept bookmarked all this time is: forums.bigfinish.com/forum.phpDon't laugh, I've been using it as my landing page for going to the Big Finish site all this time. Not sure why, maybe I wanted to see how long it would still be there. And, for real, I've sometimes gone back to read old posts. The Social Media page still states that the forum can be viewed for archival purposes: www.bigfinish.com/pages/v/social-mediaSo either they took the archived forum down without updating the Social Media page, or the forum glitched and they don't even know it. That's my theory, anyway.

If anyone is curious I finally resolved this today looks like there was a problem with the free antivirus software an update seems to have resolved the issue - and I've been hurridly downloading all the recently acquired short trips from my folder while it's working
