Default Download Speeds

Was just wondering how fast/slow downloads of demos work for everyone else..?

Maybe im just being a bit picky.. but it really feels like mine takes a bit of a while to do...

Oh yeah, and is there anyone to keep a download running withouth actually the playstation on.. (for example, would it still download demos when on stand-by or something..)

Cheers

Whaaaa!?

Thats crazy, mine takes several days!...
Is your speed just down to a great internet connection or something? or is there anything I can do to improve the download speeds at all?

I have an 8mb broadband internet connection... of that helps at all...
