Hello Frozusa,
Sorry, I'm not sure what you're saying. Is there somewhere else better to download EA games from online? If not, then EA & Origin need to take responsibility for the poor delivery system. At least warn people it will take days to download online purchases. 10 hours for 17%, and still estimated 43 hours to go is not acceptable.
Hello revkevgt,
EA use the Akamai Content Delivery system for it's content distribution through the Origin client.
@ragnarok013, Regardless of persons download speed the above system fails for many people to distribute content at a decent download speed.
example: Many of the people complaining have 10Mbit/s+ connections but the above content distribution system is only allowing 1Mbit/s and below.
1Mbit/s = 0.125MB/128KB

Thanks frozusa.
Downloading on my connection normally sees speeds >300kb/sec, and the origin download is 90 to 100kb/sec, so the problem is at their end, not the connection.
Thanks for the tips ragnarok013, but my PC is on LAN and not doing anything else but downloading this file. Hopefully overnight the transfer rate will increase dramatically.

@revkevgt, No problem.
Until EA setup their own content delivery system for the Origin client then this issue/problem is going to be an occuring question.
