Back again - Premium live streams are once again unwatchable buffering nightmares trying to watch from the Chicago area. Whatever your CDN is for this area, especially for the high quality streams, is completely dropping the ball for you guys. Watching it on Low often works enough that I'm not buffering every 10 seconds and falling behind live like crazy, and the recording afterwards will have fewer problems on high quality (but notably, not free of buffering issues). Jeff's recent Beam stream was just fine, and Twitch is never a problem for me on 720p/60fps.

I've had incredible difficulty lately streaming or downloading anything from the site. While livestreams seem fine, any video feature stream or download, on HTML5 or Progressive just do not seem to play. Even downloading the file (such as for Beast in The East Ep 6) I'm only getting 100-200kb/s, compared to steam that can get 12mb/s on my connection. Switching quality settings doesn't seem to alleviate the issue. This occurs on the latest Chrome, Firefox, and IE, on multiple computers/devices.

I assume this is an issue with the CDN for the Chicago/midwest, so my IP is: 24.15.172.220

Also seeing this, Win10 with latest chrome

I've had this issue with all livestreams in the last month (including spooking with scoops going on right now) and it is happening every minute or so, I'm in the Chicago area.
