20 minutes to download 180Mb video from Adobe Stock

Downloads from Adobe Stock are slower than dial-up!

I've got 500+ Mbps fibre download.

Getting similar stock from multiple other companies is done in seconds - Adobe takes FOREVER!!

I've just signed up to a subscription - if this is best that Adobe can do, its getting cancelled - there are enough other sources of images without battling with Adobe.

As things stand, this is not a usable service and is not fit for purpose.

Any fixes you can suggest?

I'm on a Macbook Pro via Safari.

Yes, I've restarted computer, emptied cache etc etc. Speed test says download is 525Mbps. Other sites work just fine.

Same issue. 1.5GB takes over 3 hours. Unacceptable for downloading video file. I’ve been battling this issue all day. I’m missing a deadline because of it. Totally unacceptable to have to post 180 credits for something I can’t get access to.
