It used to be a fast d/l, therefore kinda cool to surf around. Now it loads like they are serving it up on dial-up. WTH happened?

I've noticed that too.

I think they're really getting hammered. And also, with all the media on their page and all the bandwidth people take up, it's no surprise really that the site is getting slower...

More traffic?

I read somewhere on the site that they are working on the bandwidth problem though.

http://www.adcritic.com

it allows you to view different tv commercials, some of which are very funny.


apparently they moved their files to a different server with incredibly low (maybe even purposely limited? i can't remember) bandwidth. I believe the reasoning behind this is to make it so that everyone has to wait a while for the movie to download, and therefore spends more time looking at advertisements. Its all about the money....
