Hey, is it faster if you just download the demos directly, or is it the same as if you put them to "downloading in backround" i always set my downloads to the backround, but this haze demo has been downloading for 4 hours and its only on 30%! i have a good connection demos don't usually take this long. So is it faster to just download it?

Not to take anything away from the above question, but I was wondering how to download a demo in the first place. The Sony default site is incredibly hard to navigate for my liking.

Where there are some pics in a horizontal slideshow manner, they aren't links. I can't get past the "enter a lot of crap here" screen. Maybe that's my problem. They want to know stuff.

I need a simple "press here to download Grand Turismo demo" button.

What am I doing wrong?

Ok well your download might be going slow because your connection. Is your connection secure. People might be using your internet if your wireless. It can depend on how big the download is. Also if your in the chat room or in a game that uses the internet can stop it.

All right. Thank you. I'll keep trying. Yes I have a slow internet connection. I'm on an "Ultra-Lite" tier. "500 Kbps download speed". Maybe that's the problem and I'm impatient. And there's no progress indicator.
