I've had my Macbook for about a month and downloading music at first took 2 to 3 minutes at the most for an album, even quicker then my PC Desktop. (I've got a wireless connection, 2GB of RAM, and 60GB left on a 120 GB harddrive). Now it just took 30 minutes for an album, and no one is even on the internet... Any Ideas?

Could be as simple as your using a site which is busy so download speeds are low ranging to a complex problem with a drop in speed of your Wi "gives you cancer" Fi connection.

i hate macs

 

only for the arty types usually

 

my uncle has a mac and keeps saying i should by one

NEVER

its not only downloading its the internet altogether is slower than it used to be...

Could be a problem with your Wi-givesyoucancer-Fi network.

Here's the results of a speed test

84.8 kilobits per second

Communications 84.8 kilobits per second

Storage 10.4 kilobytes per second

1MB file download 1.6 minutes

Subjective rating Slow

 

Web pages seem to upload fast only streaming video online and downloads are incredibly slow

Ask at a proper computer forum.
