I didn't get any notification from Google but this probably means they're throttling the downloads. There's been a lot of traffic from HackerNews (GitHub stars have more than tripled in a day) so shouldn't be an issue in a day or so. I'm going to try to add an option for torrent download now too for another option.

Just created a torrent with all of the models, and added a link to it in the models section of the README.

Still not working for me (could it be that a Google account is now needed to use Drive ?). Maybe you could had that torrent to the source code on Github.

Interesting, I just copied the .torrent file into the Github repo so Google Drive isn't required at all. This is probably a better way to do it anyways.
