It's not terrible tonight, a lot better than the worst it's been, which is as low as 5-10KBps, but still a big drop!
Hope this helps.
Ok, the site and videos were all playing perfectly until about 30 minutes ago (8:30PM or so in Ireland), when my connection speed to the site just plummeted. Buffering every second, if I try and download the latest Metal Gear Scanlon I get a speed of about 300Kbps. My connection speed is fine:
Getting the same buffering with Gamespot videos too. It was fine all day though, only happened in the last short while.
