I tried it on campus today.. they have a uberconnect that sucks down stuff at rather insane speeds..

I was tooting along at 9 kbs trying to get the rebirth.. 11 hours 40 minutes left.. *CANCEL* hehehe I'll wait until next week..

Even the ReBirthday mod is taking ages

I'm not going to look a gift horse in the mouth here.. BUT (hehe) I think it would have been A LOT better to have had a limit on connections @ the rebirth download to keep speed higher. this would have actually sped up everyone getting it...

have like X number of connections then after that be put in a queue.. that would be better.

just my opinion of course..

or they could have hosted a torrent of it.

Best one ever indeed....more than Stardownloader

Or as a scottish friend of mine used to say "Never look a gift whore in the arse, mate!"

The free version is an adware (+ it's suspected to include or deal with the Cydoor spyware system).

WGET perhaps? (GNU licence ; spyware free).
I think there's a Mac OSX version.

Aaah! I'm sorry I posted... Don't use! It's been a long time since I last used it (years).

I've already got rebirth, had it for years - but i've been downloading the rebirth refill for bloody hours & it's stuck at 55%

reckon i'll just have to try it again in a week or so.
Only had reason 3 for a while - damn I could have got it cheap if i'd waited - but that's life, ne'er mind had lots of fun with it anyway.

Great. Another timeout by Firefox. I thought it'd resume (which it usually does) but it even told me the download was finished. At 400 something MB. I'm gonna give up on this one for now.

rebirth discontinued - now free
