how can one keep cool ? ;-)
so i just bought the upgrade and i have by now downloaded sort of 20gig of files today but first the second installer package is corrupt, then i download the third one three times and its corrupt every time (still on different expanion progresses)
so WHAT ist the problem?
i NEVER have issues with any other download of other brands that are similarily big (ableton live for example) - why here ?
 
its somehow frustrating - especially since i have NEVER had a single "no problems - installation" of any sonar since version 7 !!!
 
 

Are you running the install as administrator?

What browser are you using. I found Firefox best for downloading.

If you are running Windows Security Essentials, you might try turning off the real time protection. I've had problems getting some of the install files to unzip while this is on.

Use a download manager?

What do you mean by corrupt? 
 
Note that some, to include myself, experienced IE stripping off the *.exe from off of the file.  You may also be experiencing the same thing.  Rename the file by adding  the exe extension.  If your issues are otherwise, then disregard my comment.

checksums there ... but I use FDM to get it

Google Chrome has a built-in download manager. I'm jus' sayin'.... 

Do disable the hide extension apple crap for the windows explorer to know if the extension exists.

You can get a boxed upgrade,which Is In fact the full product of any Sonar X2 from ET Cetera In the UK  for the same price as downloads.
Much better to get hard copies than spending hours with downloads.
Even got the HD Orchestra free and Halloween together
