I *really* hate the Playstation Store

I tried to make a video but it just didn't turn out well, but here's what happened.

1. I go to Playstation Store
2. I try to download something (in this case, RE5 demo)
3. I select download on the game description page
4. I am brought to my download basket where I can see all my current downloads. From there I can choose my current download or continue shopping
5. I select my current download to check my progress
6. It starts the download over again and asks if I want to download in background (and I have to select yes otherwise I have to sit on that screen)
7. I'm brought back to the at point #4

I'm sorry but that is fucking stupid. I read SSJ12's post (very helpful, thank you) and found where to check my download management because I've been aparently doing it wrong all this time. Why the Hell would I want to exit the store to check my progress and then enter again? Why the Hell can I just not do it there?

Also, why does it let me download something again and again and again and again and not tell me I'm downloading it again and again and again and again.

The Playstation Store has a shitty confusing interface and that's all there is to it. I fucking hate it. How they messed up something as simple as downloading something and then checking your progress is beyond me but they did it.

 

You know, I had that same prob a few weeks ago. I downloaded the Motorstorm Pacific Rift demo and the Haze demo - and a few others but had probs. I am used to adding multiple files to download.

At least the browser prob I had is resolved. It would be nice if there was a tutorial on downloading off PSN.
