Well, after taking MoH for £13.50 I have to say that I'm utterly disgusted by the EA download manager.
Despite being on a 10mb connection (which somehow pulls 30mb from time to time) I've still only managed to download 6gb of the game in 3 days. Speeds seem to now be stuck at 49kbps with frequent messages about being disconnected and needing to manually unpause the file.
Not only am I getting awful speeds but the damn program decides to maximise itself every 10 minutes or so; not too bad when web browsing but a bloody ball ache when trying to watch a film or play a game.
I'll stick to steam in future.
