Possible download mirror in China?

[allbluedream]

I'm back home and generally it's great, except that jpod101 lessons don't download any more. The speed is below 1KB/s...and it would take me hours, if not days, to get a lesson. Is there any way to speed the download up? A mirror? Torrents?

Have a look at Hotspot shield:

It's a free VPN that's useful for getting around the Gr-Ea.T Fir#ewall.

Maybe somebody have cloned my nickname...I didn't write the message above.

To clarify, I am not blocked, just that the speed is slow.

I've also noticed incredibly slow download times through iTunes, especially in the evenings here in Helsinki (when the entire U.S. is downloading the majority of the content on the internet). I don't know what kind of servers japanesepod101 has, maybe something faster could be expected in the future? Sometimes the video vocab won't download at all, just times out.

Anyway, I usually just wait until morning, when they download much quicker.
