It's hard to find the kind of bandwith we need for free. (hundreds of terabytes per month)
Then I think in this case bittorrent is a good solution.
Nice userbars by the way.

SimpleCDN persistently remains somewhat unreliable. Additionally, they're unresponsive to our queries. I think it's time to evaluate alternatives.
Look at it this way. Wim just bought you a free lunch out of his pocket and all he got in return was a gripe about the service. That is extremely rude.
Wim acknowledges the issue with "the most advanced delivery system available" and is considering alternatives. OP suggests one. I'm not hating on the man but to use your comparison: he's taking me to a restaurant that he knows has poor service. In any case I donated five Euros to help.
We must have different definitions of rude because OP doesn't sound rude to me. He made a valid suggestion to correct the problem since from a user perspective its not clear you're using any fancy software.
Jordan, your donation is now complete
Rob,
We use Simple CDN. It is a content delivery network with multiple geographically dispersed server clusters. It's the most advanced delivery system available. We submit a file and it is automatically mirrored and distributed to you from the closest available location.
Yes... not only have we considered it, we have implemented it.
As you have discovered there are no other posts about download issues... That it because we almost never have any.
Now consider that we average around two million downloads a week.
- Ever consider getting the facts before saying something ridiculous?
your issue is probably related to a cluster geographicaly close to you, and is probably isolated in that it will likely not happen again.
Thanks for giving the report, but you can keep the attitude.
Wow. Wow, that is rude and you're the one that directed me to this thread. "Our system is perfect so it must be you". I live in Ottawa, Ontario and I am having this problem as well. I can't download the Sound Packs. Where's a proxy in England.
Tried a Russian proxy, got an error saying "404 File Not Found - SimpleCDN Upload Bucket o5.76 "
*Edit #37*
I was able to use the American proxy http://stupidblocker.info to download Sound Packs A and B.
I'm trying to download the DriverPacks using the BASE program and the downloading of the Sound packs keeps failing. I get about 75% of the way through the B pack and it fails (all the error message said was that it failed) and proceeds with the A pack which fails also. All the other packs download fine. Is there a mirror I can use?
