Most of the discussion so far, 4 pages is how the links or files are corrupt. I think it'll be wise to wait for a verified working and fast torrent from the usual devil site and skip the single one by one file download nonesense. BTW, jcv is not a big deal. For those who have a unit that is a few years old like the 7x5 it's really bloated. Use the original OEM .jcv that you wouldve backed up, use the 2012.10 version or get the archived .jcv from official gps sites.
A 7x5 user updating to 2012.20, regardless of how much memory the device may have internally, will get a 51MB Junction View file, which means the 7X5 owners are going to get one-tenth the junction views that users of the 37xx series get. They cannot simply replace the JCV file with one from 2012.10 or the OEM backup that they may have made because the junction view file is paired with the map image. Please do not spread misleading information simply because you do not like how the map update is being distributed.


Compared to 2011.40, the current JCV file for the 37xx series is huge. A (roughly) 340MB difference from 2011.40 to 2012.20, and a 90MB difference from 2012.10 to 2012.20. Is it bloated? Garmin could have continued to use its diagrams, but instead chose a photorealistic option for all its junction views, so yes it is bloated. However, I have personally found the photoreal views useful, and thus this is bloat I cannot complain about.
