I've read a bit lately about SIE working with broadband providers in the US and UK to lower the bandwidth in which we can download updates and games etc. I'm on virgin media 350mbs and as a test I normally run a a game such as bloodborne which takes me around 20 minutes to download the full game. I've noticed it will start off calculating to be done in around 25 minutes as of late which is as good as normal but as the download continues the speeds just progressively get worse going from say 40mb per second to 3. I've reset my router and its still happening. Is it safe to assume the downloads have now been slowed by Sony or is this just a network issue? I was wondering if anyone else has noticed a similar issue?

@NickWba20 I’ve definitely noticed slower download speeds but for me it’s been from roughly 30 minutes to about 50 minutes. I’m with Sky though, maybe they’re slowing speeds less?

I don't know what's going on with mine it's starting to go from 40 per second to as low as 6. It's on a lan cable so it's nothing to do with the connection from playstation to router.

I notice there is now an article on push squares news section suggesting many are feeling the slow down of downloads now
