Exactly the same. 15 Hours Remaining. And I have an 1Gbps Internet connection.

I dont understand why. It seems macOS update and iOS update dont share the same CDN infrastructure. Could someone comment on possible reasons why that is the case?

Apple uses Akamai for Apple Music, so I wonder why that doesn't work for macOS updates. I guess they never felt the need to invest in serious CDN infrastructure for Mac updates since it's a smaller user base?

They were on Akamai and Limestone before, but some years ago they began using their CDN for live event streaming and iOS App Downloads. ( They were very late to their own CDN when I was actively following it. ) Not sure if the three are kept intact.

Still no reason not to use their own CDN infrastructure of macOS. And 110M Mac users aren't exactly a small number either.

"About 1 day remaining" here [Edit: Make that "6 days remaining"]

Interesting, usually these big updates are fast, even hours after launching. It could indicate bigger demand than expected, or a technical problem.

Not auspicious lol.

If you're interested in knowing when this is going to be resolved, check out visualping.io or another website change detection service and set up a job for https://www.apple.com/support/systemstatus/ under "macOS Software Update - Issue."

Be nice though, and check infrequently.

Edit: This is now resolved.

It's been now 30 min https://developer.apple.com/news/releases/ is down.

Yeah, I think I'm gonna wait a few days on this one
