How to download UFC on demand clips ?

Yesterday I bought and download a clip of the Shonnie Carter vs. Matt Serra fight, from UFC in demand (which was a pretty good fight). It took me from 12pm till 6:30pm to finish the downloading. I use dial up internet, and picked 700k download. They had 2 options, 700k and 1500k download, do I picked 700k. Today I bought another clip and download the Chuck Liddell vs. Vitor Belfort fight, and been downloading since the afternoon till now, about 2:30AM, and still only 210M out of 307M, and today I picked 1500k downloading. If anyone knows how another way, or the correct way to download these fight clips from UFC in demand faster than what I have been trying to do, could you help me out, thanks.

Upgrade to DSL or Cable internet. Dial up will take forever no matter what you do.

I've tried to download a couple of fights, one of them several times. Nothing happens, it doesn't even start to download and then it says it's done, and I get charged. Fortunately they've reversed the charges on a couple of them.

I've gone on their chat help, had email help, and my son the computer networking professional tried, and still no luck. I don't have trouble with videos anywhere else, just UFC.

How is the quality of the fights, as exceptional as they claim? I have an awful lot of them already, but sometimes the quality blows. Is it worth signing up for a month and D/Ling what they have?

Besides the long hours of downloading, due to my dial up service, the 2 UFC fight clips I saw had sharp pictures, clear sounding, pretty good quality videos. I am awaiting for the Franklin/Loiseau match to come out next on demand to purchase, which should be soon. If you guys had trouble watching those fight clips, should try to delete, then reinstall the UFC media manager, hopefully that will help.
