I just made the purchase . . . looking forward to it greatly. One problem is the file size - 164MB? At my current download speed of 2.3 kb/sec I'm looking at approximately 24 hours to do this download. My internet connection is prone to disconnecting as well being painfully slow. Does anyone have any advice for me? Is there a way to save what has been downloaded and then pick up where I left off? I looked at the Matrix page of download questions. I tried stopping and picking it back up - it led me to believe that I could do that. I simply started by up from the start again. I have a limited budget and the purchase was a kind of a stretch as it is - I really didn't have plans to pay $10 more for the disc.
All you have to do is copy the download url (right click, copy URL/link location) and plug it into GetRight.
Edit: Note that it's shareware. You'll just get nagged, but it is fully functional.

Yes, try www.stardownloader.com and feel free to use www.findmyorder.com to download over multiple sessions. We've had excellent results with customers on modems using stardownloader.
Thanks for the responses, guys. In my haste to get try to get playing as soon as possible, I wasn't thinking about all the people I know who have a higher speed connection. I'll get there!
