1000 Genome Phase 3 Variant Set Mirrors

The 1000 Genomes consortium has released their final release of the Phase 3 variant set. This is a set of phased called variants in thousand genome individuals. Data is available in compressed .vcf.gz format along with the indexed tabix files. Looking for a way to download the data. See these FTP sites:

US Mirror:
ftp://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/1000genomes/ftp/release/20130502/

UK Mirror:
ftp://ftp.1000genomes.ebi.ac.uk/vol1/ftp/release/20130502/

The US 1000 Genomes mirror is substantially faster than the UK mirror when downloading files in the US.
