Valve does realize that they have OTHER games that could benefit from these kinds of things right?

My peak download rate is 76kb/s, currently at 2kb/s. Everyone must be going mad over trying to download this game.
 
BUT I WANT THAT HAT.

Try to change your download server. Mine was on UK - London instead of UK - Manchester for some reason anyway.  
How about Australian servers, sure they might be slower than normal but they might not be busy.

Hey thanks for that Webby mine was on Netherlands instead of Manchester UK for some reason.
 
I really want that hat but maybe the game will actually be good too.

I downloaded the game at around 800kb/s about 30 minutes after the game launched.
