Btw, arcrex beat me to it on the file sizes. Wish Everret wasn't such a @#$ to drive to or I would bring the files your way

Actually, it occurred to me that I know someone who has ST3 and only lives 20 minutes away. Roger, ol' pal? You reading this?

I am - tonight you want me to drop by?

Give me a ring, I'll come to you!

I have been having a Zip download nigtmare myself (work-related). I tried several times to get 800 file at two work locations in two countries and also on a home network using a different ISP. Evey time the zip file was corrupt.
 
As a last result I decided to shift from Firefox, which I usualy find more reliable for large downloads and tried Internet explorer. Worked first time.
 
The odd thing is all the corrupted files and the good one were the same size.
 

I use IE for one purpose: downloading files from Microsoft. I swear they put stuff in for the sole purpose of messing with other browsers.

Well, my ST3 conundrum is about to be resolved. Our friend lawajava is on the way with his boxed set of disks. What a guy!
 
I'll still have to download those files eventually, so I can make backups. Maybe I'll kick it off when I'm going to be out of town for a week. I've got 176 more days left before the download link goes dead.
 
But this is the last time I buy any sample library as a download - it's gonna be boxed or nuthin'. I've said that before, but this time I mean it.
 

Good news!

Good news that you have a solution, Could you make copies of the Install disks to save downloading? Or do you know someone with a fast connection that could download them for you?
 
 
Fortunatly I have very good internet access when I and in the UK and a reasonably good access when I am in Dubai. But I had one nightmare. Kirk Hunter Diamond, all 65GB of it and 16Gb or Concert Horns when they had an excellent group buy discount.
 
I was in Dubai, so not having my DAW handy I was in no hurry apart from a time limit on the download availability. For some reason the normally good connection slowed to a crawl with plenty of time outs. Kirk was good enough to extend my down load period so I could get all the files.
