That's the worst service I've ever seen. It asks you the size of each zip file and I said 50G at first. And I couldn't download it because the connection was so unstable. No way to resume it and every 20~30 mins, it failed in the middle. Chrome, firefox, safari were all the same. I tried from a GCE VM as well to see if that's my network problem but didn't help.

I had to request again with 2G and I was able to download files finally. But only one by one. And after download 3~5 files, I had to login again as their login expires so frequently.

I had to do that for days and the download got expired. Oh my god. I had to request it again. And you know what? Their file list wasn't deterministic. I had to download from the beginning. lol

I finally made it and I swear I will never use any cloud service from apple.

    Same issue has been going on for me with just about any big download from apple serves. Could be icloud. Could be xcode. Doesn’t matter. It will randomly fail in the transfer and require manual intervention to restart. Been this way for years.
