Ubuntu gets more and more popular with each release.  Expect all mirrors 
worldwide to be utterly hammered for at least the next few days.

My suggestion is to grab it via bittorrent:

http://torrent.ubuntu.com:6969/

BitTorrent as a protocol increases aggregate bandwidth as demand 
increases.  It solves it's own problem of delivering bandwidth to 
high-demand networks, versus static http/ftp servers which crumble under 
high load.

I used BitTorrent to grab all 6 CDs (desktop, server and alternate in 
i386 and x86-64 flavours) today in just a few hours on my DSL 
connection.  There are many thousands of seeds out there in all countries.
