    I'm surprised they have not leveraged torrent for this and prevented direct downloads.  Then they would only need to supply a .torrent file, or magnetic link.  Even that could be offloaded elsewhere.
    
    Someone should mention this to them.

I assume the criterial for requested downloading frequency they used was determined by how often the data is updated on their website.  For instance, some or most TLE's may only be updated once a day or two so if you are downloading it every 30 mins or hour, you aren't going to get any newer data than if you just fetch it once a day.
