You are in a queue waiting for this file, there are currently 428 people in front of you.

Just what we need, another fileplanet-esque line to wait in. and not even a very good one! There is no time estimate, just who's in front of me.

A solitary site on the NET, that takes orders, and logs people in and out, 24/7/365, should be ALOT more powerful then to have to resort to LIMITING, or Slowing access.
At LEAST put up mirrior sites, as Tocows does...
What a WASTE.............

Wow. I went to the link and tried to d/l the things for my Audigy Gamer, and not only was the site itself slow as heck, but like you said I had to wait in line to get my drivers.

Thats just pathetic. You'd think a company like Creative, the #1 seller of sound cards and major seller of PC-speakers, could afford to plug themselves into an extra OC-15 (minimum).

I've noticed that their really going downhill lately as well. The site just being the latest development. I mean, the Soundblaster Extigy is garbage, they havent released anything new for over a year (at least not anything worth while), and now their support is becoming crappier than ever before.

I just hope this trend doesnt continue.
