    It's almost impossible to give an estimation... It keeps changing as sources come and go!
    But I'd say 3-4 hours for the most popular files to an eternity for rare stuff.

    It took me forever and a day to DL jackass the movie. I got the link from fasttrack and it took about 3 weeks. The thing is with that movie there were a bunch of fakes, and this was the only good copy I could find. Patience is the key to dl'ing any large files. It does get frustrating to sit there in the queue all day and not dl anything. Just hang in there.

    I have a 570.kps connection and if its a popular file, I'd expect to get it in about 4 hours. Otherwise why are you paying for a relatively high speed connection?

    I have 56K. For me to download a 700MB movie, it would take me about.....

    a week..

    well it really matters on what you have, and what the other people have such as cable or 56k. and if there is a bunch of people dl from that person then it will go slow.
