Why do podcast episodes take a very long time to download on my computer?
The speed of a download is dependent on several factors such as your connection speed; the time of day; how busy the internet is; and whether your connection is being shared with others.
If you have a slow connection you might like to try downloading at off peak-times such as late at night or early in the morning.
